Hi! I’m Ben.

I make cool shit.

I’m the one man band that is Curly Tale Games. I’ve been designing interactives professionally for the last decade and I’m an expert in distilling ideas into experiences that tell a story. I like to use the story as a lens to look at every decision in a project from choosing the technology to the look and feel of the interface.

I’m a creative problem solver with a knack for blending the digital world with the physical one. I’m passionate about tactile interfaces with custom sensors that teach concepts through play.

Projects

I have had the privilege of working with Ben for the last 7 years. He’s not lying when he says he makes cool shit. Ben’s unique ability to blend 3D content creation, hardware engineering and programming sets him apart from others. He’s a rare breed of unicorn that understands the big picture and delivers! You won’t regret working with Ben.

Ben Nyx is the secret weapon when it comes to delivering on all things Rock Hall tech. He is a Swiss Army knife – a true master in hardware, software, programming, and solution engineering. Ben is the rare hybrid as he is truly gifted in creating both captivating virtual and nonvirtual experiences. What do we say around here when we need a complex technology fix? “Call Ben.”

We are trying to create a new museum. To give potential funders a sample of what the museum experience will be like, I needed a portable desktop exhibit about the effects of black holes on sound. The first designer I spoke with told me it might not be possible to build what I wanted, but Ben got it right away and delivered an inspired solution. He was responsive and helpful in figuring out what I needed. It works well and looks great, too.
