ABOUT
Philosophy
As a Game Designer, I believe in creating quality games to provide the best experience for the players. when designing games, my main strategy is to place my designs through the iterative process as much as possible even after the game reaches its final version, ti ensure that the game reaches its full potential.
Interests
My main interest is playing and designing games. I enjoy playing variety of games, from tabletop games to video games. I do not specialize in a certain genre of games, as I enjoy having a diverse collection. my favorite game is Magic: the Gathering.
​
outside of gaming, I read books, comics, and manga. I tend to prefer the fantasy genre.
Area of Expertise
I specialize in developing game ideas and mechanics. my ability to analyse and breakdown game mechanics allow me to utilize them in developing new games. furthermore, I have pride in my ability recognizing potential problems in games and finding their solutions
PORTFOLIO
Here are some games that I've worked on:
Area control game about spreading fake news throughout the media. players will publish stories by using cards from their hands to generate trending power. the trending power generated by the news is used to spread the fake news through through the social network represented by the board.
Card Game that teaches players how Caffeine get regulated inside the human body. players must breakdown Caffeine and transfer it to the brain in order to insure that the human body and mind remain active. however, excessive caffeine intake can harm the body. thus, players must also regulate the Caffeine intake as well.
Party card game where players are survivors with limited food supplies. the players must fight and steal food in order to survive. this is my personal game that I worked on. one of its issues that appeared during testing was that all the players used fighting mechanic and ignored defending and stealing. this made games to go out of control and finish too quickly. so, I placed restriction on how the actions interact with each other.
