As former roommates at BYU, Chan and Pasto had always talked about creating video games together, so with the addition of Prabhakar, an aspiring actor who did all voice acting, the three found an outlet for their passions.

"Each of us has our own strong points and talents, so it's been fun to do this," Prabhakar said.

The group brainstorms together, coming up with new angles on scripture stories, then begins designing.

"It's kind of our Sunday project," Pasto said. The three usually spend about three hours on the weekend coming up with new ideas and new mini-games, which they try to update weekly.

"(We use) BoMToons as an outlet for our creativity," Pasto said. "It's not for profit, so we can still feel good about working on it on Sundays."

The Web site first took off in January
