Hi! My name is Nathan Sumsion.

I’ve been a Professional Game Designer for 25+ years. I’ve helped design several successful video games with companies that include Blind Squirrel Games,  Ludia, KingsIsle Entertainment, Disney (Avalanche Software), Vicious Cycle, Crytek, Kodiak Interactive and Acclaim. 

I’m the author of the urban fantasy novel Necropolis PD, the 5e campaign setting Furhaven, and the 5e adventure module The Evil in Dromyre Keep on DMs Guild.

I am an adjunct professor and currently teach game design courses at University of the Incarnate Word.

I graduated from Utah State University with a degree in Graphic Design, with a French Minor. 

I grew up in Lincoln, Nebraska but I currently live in Texas. I have previously lived in Montreal, Germany, Utah, and North Carolina.

I grew up with a love for old monster movies, science fiction and fantasy stories, role-playing games and comic books. I always wanted these interests to be more than just a hobby. I wanted to be creating these things! In addition to creating video games, I’ve written comics, created role-playing games, worked on various board games and card games, and recently I’ve started a push to write some stories and get them published.
