Glass Head Dolls (GHD) is Tammy Morley, an indie developer who creates nostalgic, esoteric fantasy games that inspire feelings of wonder, whimsy and melancholy. She takes heavy inspiration from the 2000s era of games where graphical capabilities were improving amidst hardware limitations. Using low polygonal detail and low-res textures, her worlds call back to a fuzzy and charming appearance with a strong sense of atmosphere. PRISON OF HUSKS is GHD's first commercial project after Tammy's prior involvement in numerous game jams and participation in Tranzfuser 2022, serving as a composer and level designer for a studio called creature friends.
