A Crooked Heart is a traditionally animated, action and puzzle packed, side scrolling adventure game. Our heroes, Lulu and Orion, are
two small but brave Corgis fighting to protect the gentle Arothians from the world devouring Ravan.
After Orion is captured, Lulu sets out on a mission to save her love, free the Arothians, and to destroy
the menacing Ravan, once and for all.

The Team
Matt Tardiff-Artist/Creator
I’m the artist, animator and creator of this video game, A Crooked Heart.
I have 22 years of experience as a professional animator/illustrator working on cartoons and commercials. I also have 10 years of experience as a Corgi chew toy. My passion for traditional animation, Corgis and side scrolling adventure games have led to the creation of A Crooked Heart as a way of telling Lulu's story.
Megan Carnes-Music
Megan has years of experience bringing various mediums to life. Her fantastic ability to string together notes into a web of beauty is breathtaking. Megan's musical style fits perfectly with the tone of A Crooked Heart. I wouldn't want anyone else handling such a crucial part of telling the story.
Chris Wilson-Game Design and Programming
Chris is building on top of an established engine to take our game to the next level in both design and functionality. He is a new talent to the industry that you would swear has been here for awhile. He approaches code with the same passion and drive as Megan and I do with our abilities. To him, it's an art form manipulated using math.
