I'm David Klingler, an independent game developer. I'm also a competitive gamer, game historian, game collector, game reseller, Scottish fiddler, composer, computer enthusiast, and moralist.

I recently released a game called Cool-B in Search of Floyd. It's a speed-based platformer with different levels every time about a cat, Cool-B, searching for his brother Floyd. The game is available for PC and Mac at $1.99 and on iOS and Android for $0.99.

My second game, Crashland, is releasing on the 30th of May for iOS, Android, and Windows 8.
