- Summary: My name is Destiny Glaubitz, my focus for Project Universe is Care-giving and Farming. I am an entrepreneur in care-giving, death doula/soul midwifery, minister, cosmetologist, hypnotherapist, NLP practitioner, and psychic medium.
My Mother was born and raised in Missouri, she had 6 siblings and they all slept in one room on one bed. She and her family picked cotton to make money for food and utilities.
My Father was born and raised in Key West, he had 1 sibling. He was always in the ocean, he brought home seafood everyday, sold shells and coral for money.
I was born and raised in Key west.
We depended upon the sea and the mature landscape that gave us edible offerings.
My mother at times had to count our vegetable so everyone at the same nutrition, ie. 12 peas or 8 green beans. As a child I didn’t know better but I was happy and loved. The fresh food we consumed daily made our health optimum.
Fast forward to today, I’m a mother with 3 biological sons and a few kids that we “adopted” so they could have a chance to a normal life and adulthood. Love them all.
Living in the PNW gave us totally different obstacles than my childhood experience.

- Summary: I was first introduced to the internet in 1993, when I was seven years old. This is when I played some of the first internet based games, at that point I realized that I would pursue a career working around the internet as I wasn’t impressed by the lack of a graphic user interface or rather lack of graphics in general. I additionally recognized that education as we knew it would be changing in the near future.
Started my first business in 2006 selling European automotive performance products. By 2008 the business has opened up to carrying Japanese and American domestic performance products as well.
Started my second business in 2009 following the recession of 2008 where the goal was to rebuild my home town as much as I could by providing business development services oriented to serve those in economically depressed areas. I ran this business until 2021 where the mandates annihilated most of my clients leaving me to pivot once more. I have watched Michael’s endeavour closely, offered criticism where it was needed, and have been happy to watch this grow into what it is today. I am proud to be here supporting him and this project.

He joined Project Universe in late 2019 while on the mend from a serious illness and has spent the last three years developing the game. Involved in both the conceptual and practical design of the game, he has worked tirelessly to bring the game to life. Recent progress has nearly completed a demo of several core features of the game, including inventory, power, equipment, mining, production, environmental systems, and a nuclear reactor.

- Summary: I got my first computer at the age of 5, and have been hooked on creating ever since. My first foray into creating stuff was with the Warcraft 3 World Editor, where I would create melee maps for me to play with AI. When I turned 12, I started looking into game dev as a potential career, and found Unity. The first project I made was with the ball rolling tutorial they had at the time. I followed it, then made a few things myself such as powerups and enemies.
The first game I released was for the dreamhack jam. It was a bullet hell game inspired by Realm of the Mad God. I worked in a duo, with them doing art and me code. The next project I released was a solo game, made for the Ludum Dare game jam. It was LD42 and ran in August of 2018. I made a game where you were stuck in a warehouse while a teleporter endlessly spawned boxes and threw them around the room, and you had to dodge them.
In December of 2021, I got married to the love of my life. 3 months later in March of 2022 we found out she was pregnant! It was unexpected, but we were happy nonetheless. In November of 2022, my first born daughter was born.
I’m excited to see where my life goes!
