A one-man show

Who are you?

My name is Göran Strand and I have been interested in computers and programming since the early 80s. My first computer was a ZX Spectrum, followed by a Commodore 128, an Amiga 500, an Amiga 1200, and eventually the grown-up world of PCs. Today I work as a freelance photographer, but I still enjoy programming in my spare time.

So what’s with the name gostworks?

When I made my first website back in the 90s, I called it gostworks. It was a play on words using my first and last name, with “works” added at the end. The name stuck with me, and I have used it ever since.

What do you do?

Ever since childhood, I have enjoyed developing my own board games and, later, computer games. Lately, I have once again found the inspiration to develop new ideas and games, just for the fun of it.

Why do you make these games?

Mostly because I enjoy the process and the excitement of seeing an idea come to life. Usually, all my games or apps have some connection to my youth or to something I like to play myself.

Can I support your work?

Yes. All support is much appreciated. It helps me keep developing new games, improving existing ones, and spending more time on these small independent projects.
