Director; Developer and Designer

Toasted Jam has literally never toasted jam, but he did grow up playing video games like every other millennial alive, which makes him very special and very qualified to run a game studio. He's always wanted to make games, but is REALLY bad at art. Once he realized he could get help from people who could make art, he teamed up with Counting Coups and Sofia to create Whalecat Interactive in 2023.

At his day job, Toasted Jam is an engineering manager with about 4 years of experience in software engineering, 4 years of experience in computational scientific research, and another 9 years of experience in front end development and digital marketing. He mostly enjoys making cool stuff, whether that's at the office or the studio.

CountingCoups has one major goal on this team: help create fun games that have a lasting impact on players. He wants to do that with compelling narratives, by exploring the emotional depth behind character motivations, and by crafting moments of authentic expression.

Though his writing background is in short stories and novellas, Coups is eager to put experience with the video game medium into his utility belt.
