Steve Higgins

Content Creator, Web Developer & Digital Innovator

I'm an award-winning content creator and filmmaker, and non-award-winning author with a passion for building engaging digital experiences. My career spans content creation, web development, and digital media, and I've developed a unique ability to fuse creativity with technical expertise. This allows me to build and manage high-traffic online platforms from the ground up.

I'm the founder of several successful web projects, including Higgypop and Paralearning. I've built, scaled, and monetised content-driven websites, and my filmmaking achievements include 'My Ghost Hunting Movie', an award-winning feature documentary. I also grew my YouTube channel to over 100,000 subscribers, earning the platform's Silver Creator Award.

Sandkings

Based partly on George R. R. Martin's novelette, 'Sandkings', but more so an episode of 'The Outer Limits', this simulation game is all about breeding a colony of alien insects that hatch from eggs brought back by a Mars lander. The game uses a third-party AI to generated in-game journal entries.

Peek inside my private /projects/ lab

Behind this site there's a password-protected /projects/ directory where I try out new ideas, build odd little tools, run layout experiments, and generally break things in useful ways.

Project Lab gives subscribers access to that playground - a live working directory of prototypes, test rigs and half-finished concepts that sometimes grow into full projects.
