About SupraOrbital Studios

Hey there, welcome to SupraOrbital Studios! A small indie studio where passion for gaming and technology fuels the creation of our unique and exciting virtual reality experiences.

Meet the Dev

That one-person team? That’s me, Francis. I’m a software developer with a degree in computer science, and six years of professional software development experience under my belt. I started off my career as a backend developer, and I’ve had my hands in everything for the last few years as a full stack developer.

I’ve been playing video games since I could hold a Game Boy Color without dropping it. In high school, I began experimenting with creating my own games—first text-based games in Python, then Flash games using ActionScript. Now, I’m pouring that passion and experience in SupraOrbital Studios.

The Games I’m Building

Currently, I’m working on a virtual reality disc golf game. Think of a cross between Walkabout Minigolf and Mario Gold: Super Rush. You’ll be able to play with friends across different worlds, use power-ups to outsmart your opponents, and take on single-player challenges

The disc physics are realistically simulated. Spin, angle, and wind are all factored in to apply realistic lift and drag forces, so if you’ve ever thrown a disc before, the feel will be immediately familiar to you.

Why “SupraOrbital”?

If you’re wondering about the name SupraOrbital Studios, it’s a little nod to my pronounced supraorbital ridge (the bump on the forehead, just above the eyes and nose). Plus, it has a cool, space-like vibe, don’t you think?

Right now, it’s just me at the studio. But who knows? As we grow, we might add a few more passionate game lovers to the mix.
