Dero Lavigne — Dallas, Texas
About

Dero Lavigne

I am Dero Lavigne — developer of nearly everything on this site — based in Dallas, Texas, USA. I build games, websites, and platforms with a full production stack. Music, visuals, and media production for many releases ship through Martinez AI Studios, the content production arm behind artists like Kaela Inferna. I work with clients in the United States, Latin America, and remotely — local AI (VM + ComfyUI on RTX 5090), cloud AI (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor), lyrics, ElevenLabs voices, Filmora, and publishing to web, YouTube, or streaming.

I shipped CONTRABAND: Edge of the Fold on a custom JavaScript, HTML5, Web Audio, Electron and Steamworks stack. Current game development has moved into Godot for a more ambitious real-time 3D pipeline. CONTRABAND 2: Beyond the Fold is a separate project in development.

For design I use CorelDRAW and Adobe — Firefly, Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign — for branding, editorial work, and print-ready assets. Projects run in Jira; with some clients I also use Trello for lighter boards.

I ship premium high-traffic sites with real backends: Supabase, Firebase, Stripe, PayPal, Vercel deploy, GoDaddy domains. From Brothers2Go (Texas, bilingual) to artists on Martinez AI Studios like Kaela Inferna or Charly. I mentor others to publish their own catalog the same way.
