About the Developer
I’m Wayne ‘Zorg’ Robinson, a solo indie developer from the United Kingdom, working under Zorg Games (a private limited company, SC859725). By day I’m the Chief Technical Officer at Hunted Cow Games — Star Vortex is the project I chip away at in my own free time.
I’ve been making games for over 25 years, ever since I was very young. I’ve run Legacy, a web-based game, since 2005, and have been lucky enough to work on countless projects in the years since. I joined Hunted Cow Games in 2011 and stepped into the CTO role in 2017. Away from the keyboard, I train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and serve as an on-call firefighter.
