sheepytina on YouTube

Currently my primary creative focus is my YouTube channel, "sheepytina", which as of the beginning of 2020 has almost 1600 subscribers. I specialise in documentary-style content focusing on retro gaming. I also produce game reviews and "let's play" videos, and have even received review copies of games from major publishers such as SEGA.

The best example of the work I do would be this video where I explore the history of Console Classics, a little-known and short-lived publisher that produced modern PC re-releases of classic games. This video contains a lot of independent research and I even got in touch with one of the developers!



Videos like this take a lot of time and effort to produce, and your support will help make more content like this a reality.

Game Development

Together we make up the team we like to call "Magical Miracle" - so named for our flagship project, Magical Miracle Mira! Our games are designed to be fun and accessible, and as queer and disabled individuals, will often (though not exclusively) feature characters and themes that reflect our experiences.

Supporting me here on Patreon means helping me turn this into a viable full-time career, which of course means being able to dedicate more time and effort to producing great content! Your contribution is deeply appreciated!

If you'd like to see what we are capable of, please take a look at the Game Jam demo we were able to create in just a month - "Nazi Slam" - we think that despite its limitations, it's a reasonable showcase of our abilities.

We have the skills; we just need your support! 

Some of our projects

Here's a sample of the projects we're working on!

Magical Miracle Mira

An action platformer reminiscent of games like Mega Man and Shantae, starring an adorable magical robot girl named Mira.


Mira can gain new powers through costumes, giving her new combat and movement abilities and even allowing her to reach previously unreachable places. 



For more information on Magical Miracle Mira, please read our first development blog here.

What will this patreon fund?

By funding this Patreon, you are helping to pay for the general costs of living, enabling time to be dedicated to these creative pursuits instead of things like looking for paid employment. The less I need to worry about my finances, the more I can work on awesome games!
