Hi, I'm Jóhan Gaardbo — also known as GaardboDev
I’m a 30-year-old developer based in Denmark who loves creating things in my spare time — mostly games, but also smaller software and experimental “professional” projects. This website is a space to share what I build, learn, and experiment with.
About Me
My background is in software development, but my passion lies in building things that are fun, creative, and hands-on. I enjoy experimenting with game design, small tools, and interactive projects that explore ideas beyond my daily work.
Learn more about me →Game Development
Most of my spare time goes into making small indie games and prototypes — from idle resource games to pixel-art platformers. These projects are how I experiment with game mechanics, design, and code.
Lumberer Island
A small semi-idle game game where you chop trees, earn gold, and gain XP to unlock upgrades
Dungeon Boy
A short 2D platformer where you play as a lost boy exploring a dangerous dungeon filled with traps.
Other Projects
Occasionally, I also create small apps and tools — personal “professional” projects where I experiment with platforms like Next.js, Power Platform, and .NET.
GaardboDev Website
A simple portfolio website built with Next.js and TypeScript to showcase my development projects.
