My love for videogames stems from the fact that unlike other forms of entertainment, where the audience interacts only passively, video games make the audience actively participate in the experience. They are a unique blend of art, technology, and storytelling, which allows for the creation of immersive and interactive experiences. I draw my design ethos from figures like Markus Person, Peter Molyneux and Ken Levine: to empower players to shape their own stories, to prioritise their agency and fostering a dynamic world where unpredictable outcomes and limitless possibilities abound. Additionally, I'm influenced by the creativity of developers like Volition, whose humour and over-the-top antics inspire me to infuse my game worlds with a sense of rebellious fun. I aspire to leave a lasting impact on gamers, by creating worlds that captivate, inspire, and challenge them to explore the boundless possibilities of the medium.Current projects I’m working on right now are: • Producing a racing simulator for South Bank Racing, where my leadership involves assembling and guiding a team of game design students at LSBU, assigning roles and responsibilities within the team based on individual strengths and specialisms, coordinating playtesting sessions and gathering feedback from South Bank Racing.• An Exergaming experience aimed at elderly people, the game uses the Webcam of the computer to allow players to use their hand to play a tennis table game. My responsibilities involve creating art assets, sound, coding and conducting regular meetings with my client to ensure that the product fulfils his vision.• Developing a 3D first person sandbox game, where the player are in the shoes of a disgruntled employee and can smash objects, break furniture, and set off explosive devices to wreak havoc and earn points.
