Writer | Developer | The Gentleman Gamer
Matthew has been creating videos about tabletop RPGs since 2009 and has been writing RPGs for around a decade, spanning genres from fantasy to historical, and horror to contemporary mystery.
As well as being a frequent contributor to game lines such as Vampire: The Masquerade, Matthew conceptualised and recently developed They Came from Beneath the Sea!, a sci-fi game set before the backdrop of 1950s B-movies. This game by Onyx Path Publishing reached 200% of its funding target on Kickstarter and was backed by over 900 individuals. Moreover, its sequel They Came from Beyond the Grave! received even more support, strengthening the increasingly popular game line!
Matthew is a video game content designer, having worked most recently for Paradox Interactive and Nacon on Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong. He is also a skilled voice actor with a range of accents at his disposal.
As a two-time Origins Award Winner (Fan Favorite RPG of the Year 2019 and Best Roleplaying Game of the Year 2019, both for Vampire: The Masquerade Fifth Edition), Matthew is happy to be leaving his mark on the gaming industry.
