TJ Mota
Game Writer | Narrative Designer
Hey there! I’m TJ, a game writer/narrative designer with over five years of experience writing for mobile and indie games.
My game writing credits include Artix Entertainment's AdventureQuest 3D, Crazy Maple Studio's Chapters: Interactive Stories, Jim Gray Production's Escape from Hadrian's Wall, and Horn and Ivory's upcoming, debut title, Get Your Ship Together!
I also have a background in film and higher education, which helped me cultivate the creative versatility and collaborative soft skills necessary to a boon for any creative team. I pride myself on being adaptable, meeting tight deadlines, and providing thoughtful feedback to my colleagues.
Working with TJ is a pleasure. TJ learns quickly and implements feedback with incredible understanding. He is flexible, collaborative, and eager to ensure projects succeed. His writing talent and professionalism are a welcome addition to any game team.

TJ has a deft hand for actor friendly, naturalistic dialogue. His keen sense of rhythm allows him to sidestep the trap of exposition laden dialogue and instead have the character’s psychology naturally bubble up. This surgical work is all of course couched in a masterful sense of the big picture.

I met TJ during The Narrative Department game-writing masterclass. TJ was very welcoming and flexible, intuitive and focused. His fantastic feedback allowed me to lower my guard and figure out where my stories weren’t working. Really looking forward to his next work.
