Michael Shalyt


Though Michael's academic training is in Quantum Physics, he has a wide variety of skills, interests and hobbies. Michael was a PC gamer since the age of 5, wrote his first program at 8 and spends a large part of his life in the virtual space to this day. In addition to his work in the cybersecurity field, Michael loves analyzing various systems (including games) and creating simplified models to describe them - some examples can be found in his blog: Life in a Graph.

We are both avid gamers from a young age - playing, designing, competing and analyzing games for many years now. Fireside Tales is a fusion of our gaming passion and fiction writing hobby: a game that makes you and your friends come up with cool, cohesive and memorable stories - what could be better? :)
