Explore my ideas

Dream. Design. Develop.

As a dedicated game designer, my primary aim is to merge different gaming genres and pioneer fresh innovations in the industry. I specialize in connecting diverse gaming styles to craft novel gameplay mechanics and compelling narratives.

My passion lies in revitalizing established gaming categories and reimagining conventional concepts. I am driven by the challenge of fusing disparate genres to create something entirely new and exciting for players.

My love of gaming and understanding of player psychology additionaly motivate me to constantly improve and innovate as a game designer.

Pirates of Limbali

A turn-based strategy game with a random generated map, in which you play as a pirate rescuing his friends. A huge learning opportunity for me, as this was the first big project I worked on with a team. Another big learning was how to scope your games whilst taking in mind the given time limitations.

The team that worked on this project consists of Lechner Felix, Milanollo Ismael, Zierlinger Linus and myself.

Spectral Elevation

In this rogue-like top-down shooter, players must overcome waves of foes to advance. Upon defeating all enemies, they can enhance their weapon and select upgrades for enemies to proceed.
This project had a big focus on multiple interacting systems which is why I taught myself about systems design, which is also the topic of my diploma thesis.
