Adam Saltsman

Saltsman produced an open-source game development library for Adobe Flash called Flixel.

[1][2] Saltsman developed the browser game Gravity Hook in August 2008, which is a vertically scrolling video game in which the player attempts to use a futuristic grappling hook to climb out of an underground, secret base in order to reach the surface.

[4] almost no one in the industry ... hasn't taken serious note of its acclaim and wondered what magic formula there might be hidden in its design that can be replicated elsewhere.

[8] Semi Secret's Eric Johnson found the code and made an iPad port in a weekend, beginning the collaboration.

[9] Semi Secret did not have the funds to begin a new game from scratch, so the project fit their company roadmap.

[7] Saltsman collaborated with Keita Takahashi on the title Alphabet (stylized A͈L͈P͈H͈A͈B͈E͈T͈) which was developed for the launch of LA Game Space in 2012.

The experimental game was first displayed to the public by Juegos Rancheros on April 5, 2013 and was released to backers of the LA/GS Kickstarter that September.

[20] Finji distributed Night in the Woods, a Kickstarter-funded project by Scott Benson and Holowka.

[21] In June 2014, Polytron announced that it would be co-publishing the "interactive musical landscape anthology" game Panoramical with Finji.
