About me

I’m Devan Metz, an independent maker working across code, electronics, and physical builds. My projects range from multiplayer worlds to bow-mounted sensors and parts fresh off a 3D printer.

I like connecting those skills: making hardware useful through software, building playable worlds, and turning CAD models into physical parts.
