Thais Weiller


Thais Weiller is a Brazilian game designer and producer. Together with Danilo Dias she co-founded JoyMasher and released Oniken and Odallus. They are currently working on their latest game, Blazing Chrome.
She has also created Rainy Day, a game about anxiety and depression: she spoke at Game Developers Conference in 2017 about "wondering why no one was making games about the 'crappy moments in life,' like break ups, awful bosses, and experiences with serious health conditions." Rainy Day was described by one reviewer as "um jogo curtinho sobre ansiedade e depressão que você deveria jogar agora". She has also published two books on game design, "Game Start" and "Pense Pequeno", under Creative Commons license share-alike. Both books are in Portuguese and available for free download.
She has an M.Sc. in game design from the University of São Paulo.
