A few things I've built.

About me

Eighteen, self-taught, and shipping.

I'm Markus, also known as Deadmake. I'm 18, self-taught, and from South Tyrol. I started by taking things apart to see how they worked, and I never really stopped.

Most of my time goes into building real products end to end: a Minecraft launcher used by thousands, game networks with custom backends, web apps, and the interfaces that tie them together. I like owning a feature from the database schema to the last pixel.

This autumn I'm moving to Erlangen to study Computer Science at FAU. I'm not chasing a title, I care about shipping things that work and getting a little sharper with every project.

Kind words

“Engaged from day one, found his footing fast, and drove a lot of things forward on his own. What stood out was the mix of curiosity, structure, and the will to truly understand things, not just tick them off. Reliable, open to feedback, and genuinely great to work with. A clear recommendation from me for whatever comes next.”
