About Oakbeard Games

Hi, my name’s Damo, I’m an indie developer, located in the North of England in a village called Steeton.

I’ve always been passionate about games, starting young by sneaking up to my uncles bedroom and booting up his Sega CD and playing Night Trap (I was about 6 at the time) getting my first console at the early age of 8, the Master System back in the early 90’s, playing Alex the Kidd, Sonic the Hedgehog, Asterix and Obelix, Castle of Illusion etc. I could never complete them but had a fun time trying!

Moving onto the Mega Drive, my passion cost my poor mother a lot in going to the local game store and buying second hand games that I liked the look of (I eventually got around to actually completing games, my favourite memory was of beating up Metal Sonic and Dr. Robotnik in Sonic 2 and the awesome musical medley at the end.)

Then came the Playstation and my obsession for RPG’s, starting with Final Fantasy VII. I played this game (and completed it) multiple times, I loved the mystery and the hidden gems it had. Playing this game got me hooked and I’ve played every Final Fantasy ever since.

Mobile games, MMO’s and shooters are now my passion, Final Fantasy XIV online and Call of Duty being my main go-to’s these days.

I created Oakbeard Games to share my passion and to create games which I personally enjoy and that I can share with the world. With my biggest passion being MMO’s and RPG’s this is something I am wanting my company to create and be the best it can be!
