About Me
Name: Ira
Occupation: Entrepreneur
Age: 26
Location: Victoria, BC, Canada
Facebook: Right here
I’ve been making websites and designing games for over 8 years now. My most successful site has been AddictingGames.com which is now owned by MTV. After the sale I launched OneMoreLevel.com and it has grown to over 3 million visitors a month. I’m particularly interested in Web 2.0 startups, game design and the growth of the casual gaming industry, which is the intended focus of this blog, however it may degenerate into lolcat photos and off-topic ramblings.
My design philosophy behind OneMoreLevel is:
- Quality over quantity. Only the best games make it on.
- Non-intrusive and minimal advertising. I don’t allow pop-up or audio ads.
- A quick, clean layout and no login required to play games.
- Free sharing of games. I’m happy to link to my competitor’s site if they have a good title I do not. I’m not a fan of walled-in sites.
- Reward developers. Without them we wouldn’t have any games and I wouldn’t have a job!
My other interests include playing guitar, photography, hiking, disc golf and travel.
If you have any questions or suggestions send me an e-mail, or leave a comment below.

Wow!This website is phenominal…. ( I’m sure I spelled that right) Its a cool thing that you add games everyday of the week! I visit this site everyday! I’d just like to ask if you could fit in games on the weekends. Becuase I’m mostly on on the weekends. But I still play the daily games. I’d just like it to be everyday so I never get bored of the same old games. :D no offence lol. If you can write back. MY 1ST COMMENT!!! WOOT lolity.

I love your games, and it’s not commercials everywhere eiether. Every day at school I’m checking if it’s a new game, and if not, I’m going on facebook, not on other game-sites’=)

The game Robot Wants Kitty was horrible. It was painfully aggravating and had little reward. I beg you to please refrain from posting games such as these.
