He began his career as a game developer for Czech Games Edition and contributed to several titles including Adrenaline, Pulsar 2849, and Sanctum. In 2023, he received major acclaim for Kutná Hora: The City of Silver (co-designed with Ondřej Bystroň and Pavel Jaroš), which recently won the prestigious As d'Or award.
