Profile
Mathias Kusch
Solo Software & Game Developer · Creator · Tinkerer · Funchal, Madeira, Portugal
After more than eight years in the automotive industry – spanning software testing and quality engineering – I decided to carve my own path and turn my passion into reality. As the solo developer behind Matikus, I combine an industry-grade quality mindset with creative experimentation to build software and games with character and heart.
What I bring to development: Strong background in software quality and testing · Experience with complex safety-relevant systems · Hands-on execution from first prototype to refined builds · Curiosity, experimentation and a user-first perspective
Follow my journey into indie software and game development – I regularly share devlogs, behind-the-scenes insights and lessons learned from changing careers and going solo.
