Addicted to books, making games and eating hummus.
A little context...
I am a spanish game programmer who is trying to set foot in the industry. I've been learning gamedev for more than five years, and it has been an incredible journey so far. I just love games a lot. Check my portofolio if you want.
It is actually a bit difficult for me to define myself purely as a game programmer, because I am currently working as a software engineer at Softtek doing backend development, and I also like it a lot.
I am not only interested in games, but learning in general. I am a really curious person, and one of the things that I spend most of my time on is reading books. I just enjoy acquiring knowledge of all sorts, which is good for the soul, they say.
I was born in Albacete, Spain, and even though I love my hometown, I cannot wait to discover the world. One of my dreams is to become a digital nomad and travel around the world with a laptop. I know It will eventually come true.
Want I am currently working on...
Even though I've been using Unity and C# for several years, I've decided to learn C++ in order to make my own engine from scratch. I think I've become dependent on Unity, and I've never tried to build anything systemic. I am sure that making my own engine and making games with it is going to make me a much better programmer in the long run. Several articles written by a327ex and Tyler Glaiel have convinced me to do so, and I think it is the best decision I could've taken.
Since October 2024 I've been enrolled on a Master's Degree in Game Programming. I have been enjoying it a lot and I don't want it to finish! We are making a really interesing game and I've learned a lot this year. I've also met some wonderful people I hope to keep in my life.
