Klassic Games is the home of all games and creative works being created by Jes Klass.

Jes is a Chicago native who recently completed her MFA in Game Design at DePaul University. Since graduating, she has started teaching game design, game art, and social media at DePaul as an adjunct instructor. Jes also works in DePaul’s Center for Teaching and Learning as a Senior Instructional Designer. In 2022 she founded the DePaul Instructional Game & Innovation (DIGI) Lab to work alongside faculty across the university to design and develop games for their classes.

Before pursuing a career in games, Jes worked primarily as a copywriter, editor, and social media manager. She has always loved games, however, and has spent thousands of hours playing them. Some of her favorites are: the Suikoden Series, Tetris, World of Warcraft, Skyrim, Destiny 2, and basically any JRPG from the early 90s. 

In her free time, Jes enjoys wandering the streets while playing Pokémon Go, meticulously tinkering with her 3D printer, playing trumpet, eating at every vegan restaurant in Chicago with her lovely wife Heather, and spending time with her pets.
