About me

I wrote my first line of code in 2008 when a friend and I got an idea for a top-down “battle simulator” video game. Learning C++ and the SDL framework from scratch, this task proved to be quite an ambitious challenge for two kids with no prior experience, but it showed me how fascinating working on a game can be.

Soon after, I got involved in the modding scene for the 2010 video game Amnesia: The Dark Descent, where I learned to script gameplay mechanics using AngelScript. This gave me valuable experience in working with a large existing codebase.

I first started using the Unity engine around 2017. It has since become my absolute favourite environment, both for its workflow and because, coming from a C++ background, I find C# and .NET to be a joy to work with.

During my free time, I am often working on something in Unity. However, I do also enjoy playing video games, and doing so with friends all over the world is an important social experience for me. Currently, some of my favorites are Arc Raiders, Crusader Kings III, and Deadlock.

I also have a great interest in history and have practiced longsword fencing (HEMA, Historical European Martial Arts) at a local fencing club. In the future, I’d like to incorporate this interest and knowledge into a game development project.
