Brin Shadewater

🎬 Filmmaker by day, game dev by increasingly questionable life choices. 🎮

I’m Alex / Brin — a Vancouver-based film producer, AD, streamer, developer, and professional starter-of-projects.

I run Shadewater Labs 🧪, my little home for games, creative tools, experiments, and other things I probably decided to build at 2 AM.

Right now I’m developing BrineSpace 🌊🚀 — an underwater-space station sim full of lonely machinery, tiny people with problems, strange science, and the creeping suspicion that something beyond the glass is looking back.

My background is mostly in film. I produced and AD’d Strange Harvest 🎥, and I bring a lot of that filmmaking brain into how I approach games: worldbuilding, production design, atmosphere, storytelling, and an unhealthy appreciation for complicated logistics.

Somewhere along the way I also learned web development, started streaming, got very interested in creative technology and AI-assisted workflows, and apparently decided I needed even more hobbies.
