Founder
Elijah
Founder & Developer
I'm Elijah, a 17-year-old self-taught developer from Colorado and the founder of Seventh Day Studios. I started this studio because I saw a gap in the gaming world — there weren't enough high-quality games that reflected the faith and values I grew up with. So instead of waiting for someone else to make them, I decided to build them myself.
My faith drives everything I do. It's the reason this studio exists and the foundation behind every game we create. I'm currently balancing finishing high school and working full time while pouring everything I've got into building something meaningful — games that glorify God and prove that faith and quality belong in the same sentence.
This isn't just a hobby or a side project. This is the dream, and I'm building it one line of code at a time.

Scorse
Developer — Modeler | Scripter | UI/UX
My name is Scorse, and I am a 3D modeler first and foremost. Creating the worlds, characters, and environments that players step into is what drives me. I believe that great visuals are not just decoration — they are storytelling, and every model I build is an opportunity to communicate something meaningful. Being part of Seventh Day Studios means my craft is being used for something greater than entertainment. It is being used to glorify God, and that changes everything about how I approach my work. I am here to build something beautiful, and I am honored to do it alongside this team.
