Jongens.

I founded JoTo Games and make games for one TV and a room full of phones. Organisations and schools can use the same platform for what their people need to try.

Things I've made.

The studio first, then two projects with their own address.

JoTo GamesFounder · since 2018
Rotterdam

An independent game studio, and the room its games share.

JoTo makes party games for one TV and everyone's phones, and browser games that open with nothing to install. JoTo Party is the room: one code for the whole night, every phone a controller.

Odd Sketch on the TV — Odd Sketch: everyone draws the same prompt. Except one of you.

Beefcake: SmashUnity 6

Muscular animal bodybuilders smash cars with their bare fists.

An arcade idle-battler: tap to punch, build rage, strip the car until the engine catches fire. Sessions last thirty seconds to three minutes. Thirteen playable Beefcakes, from Muscle Chicken to Muscle Rhino.

Slice a photo into a sliding puzzle and send it as a link.

Upload or snap a photo, pick the tile to hide, and send a friend the link. They solve it in their browser, with nothing to install. The hidden tile drops in at the end and shows the whole picture.

The same platform, for what your people need to try.

JoTo's games run on one screen with every phone as a controller, or in a browser with a link. I lead the work myself; JoTo builds it.

For organisations · Applied games

Make the challenge something people can try.

Training people click through, onboarding that still leaves them unsure, a decision with competing consequences, an event that needs people to take part. A game helps when people have to do the thing, not hear about it.

How applied games work

For education · Subscription

A teacher's screen, pupils' phones and a room code.

Quizzes, simulations and classroom tournaments on the teacher's screen, with every pupil playing from their own phone. JoTo supplies the content as a subscription, and makes a custom game for your lesson on request.

Playable explanations: a machine or simulation on the screen, and on every phone a control (a crank, a slider, a valve), so the class drives the explanation together.
A product of its own, built for schools: separate from JoTo Party.
A first pilot is planned for the first quarter of 2027.
