It’s at the age of 16, in 1985, that my professional career started thanks to the creation a first commercial game for the Commodore 64. I very soon drew the attention of Ubisoft, a big French publisher and left Belgium for France where I spent two years working as a game’s programmer.After this very enriching period of apprenticeship I came back to Belgium and created several games as a freelancer (Unreal & Agony on Amiga). The success of these products gave me the opportunity to start up game development companies, each one being specialised in their own specific fields. I was the founder of Appeal, the company that created the action/adventure game Outcast, published by Infogrames.In 2001, I embarked on a new adventure: Elsewhere Entertainment, a game development studio focused on innovations in game design and game production excellence. We released several games on PS2, XBox360 and PC. I finaly sold this studio to 10Tacle GMBH, a german publisher.In 2009, with Christian Guillemot, i created AMA Studios, a Belgian game development company focused on motion gaming. We released two XBox 360 Kinect games and one Xbox One launch title that were published by Ubisoft.Since the end of 2015, with Yann Robert and Franck Sauer, we revived Appeal as a studios (www.appeal-studios.com). We are now working on games using the Outcast brand and universe.
