About Me

🎮 Tony Zharoff: The One-Line Dev Army 🎮

I’m a game designer, Unity developer, and mentor driven by code, caffeine, and curiosity. I love turning wild ideas into immersive, playable experiences — whether I’m helping teens ship their first games, building creepy VR prototypes, or guiding studios toward smarter production pipelines.

By day, I consult with indie teams, design brain-hungry clicker games (shoutout to Brain Plunder), and create hands-on curricula that actually prepare students for the realities of game development. By night, I’m crafting spooky stories, experimenting with anti-inflammatory meals for my family of four, and turning chores into quests for my kids — because gamification doesn’t stop at the keyboard.

I build my work on clean code, clever systems, and player-first design. Through my consulting company, One Line Academy, I help developers level up their projects, pipelines, and portfolios. Whether I’m writing in Astro, mentoring through game jams, or giving inspirational talks, I’m always focused on one thing:

Helping others create, learn, and play better.
