ABOUT ME

My life and path to becoming a gamedeveloper

Hi, I'm Owen, 18 years old. I was born in Zaandam but live in Oostzaan, and I see myself as a beginning game developer.

My passion lies in gamedevelopment. I consider myself a friendly and down-to-earth guy who is easy to work with. My favorite project so far is Expanding Space, where I created a beautiful platformer within the space theme.

I especially enjoyed projects where I had a lot of creative freedom, and working with others made it even more fun. I used to play volleyball, which I really enjoyed, but unfortunately, most of my team members quit, and with that, my enthusiasm faded as well.

Now, I stay active doing fitness with my aunt and friends.

Working in Unity was sometimes challenging, but that's exactly why I love the program. Testing the product was usually the highlight of a project since that's when you receive the most feedback. Fortunately, I’m good at finding creative solutions.

My plan for the future

I plan to gain more experience in game programming with C#. I also have experience with software such as Blender, Houdini, and Unreal Engine (see portfolio). I am eager to intern at a company where I can learn more about Unity or Unreal Engine. Unity appeals to me because I already have some experience with it and want to deepen my skills. On the other hand, Unreal Engine piques my curiosity, as I believe it could play a significant role in the future of game development.
