Founder & Lead Developer of Argames15
With a journey spanning over a decade since the start of my game design studies, I have developed a versatile skillset that bridges the gap between creative play and professional logic. My expertise includes:
But how did it all begin? Let's take a look back at the milestones that transformed Argames15 from a bold idea during my studies into an established brand for digital development.
The story of Argames15 didn’t begin in a boardroom; it started in a lecture hall. In 2015, as I began my formal studies in Game Design, I realized I didn’t just want to play games—I wanted to architect them. The name was my first act of creation: AR for my identity as Alexander Ritter, Games for the passion that has been my constant companion since childhood, and 15 to mark the year I fully committed to the craft. It was a simple brand for a massive ambition.
The early years were a baptism by fire. I quickly discovered that the distance between a "good idea" and a "working app" is filled with complex, interlocking systems. From mastering game engines to ensuring backend stability, every project felt like a high-stakes puzzle. My biggest adversary back then was time—balancing the rigorous demands of my studies with the technical hurdles of a developer just starting out. Yet, through that struggle, I succeeded in developing over 5 games and 10+ apps for various clients and personal ventures.
As I moved deeper into the professional world, my path took a turn. I spent several years working within development companies, shifting my focus toward the precision-heavy world of E-commerce. While my daily work involved building robust commercial platforms, this period was vital. It taught me the "invisible but essential" side of development: security, scalability, and user experience. Even though many of my early projects eventually went offline and I took a hiatus from personal development, these lessons were quietly sharpening my tools for the future.
Today, 11 years after that first lecture in 2015, the landscape has changed, but my mission hasn’t. After a significant break, the creative fire is back, stronger than ever. Argames15 is entering its most ambitious chapter yet. While I currently lead the brand as a solo founder, I am supported by a trusted network of external developers who help me bridge technical gaps and bring complex visions to life.
My goal is simple but absolute: To reclaim the freedom to create. Currently, I am investing my expertise into developing the games and apps I’ve always wanted to see exist. But I’m not stopping there. Over the next few years, my vision is to grow Argames15 into a thriving, full-time studio. I aim to bring more talented creators onboard—people who share my love for deep mechanics and engaging systems. We are laying the groundwork today so that tomorrow, we can transition from a passion project into a dedicated team building something extraordinary.
