SKILLS
(and things I like!)
As a game designer, my skillset is shaped by a blend of creativity, technical expertise, and a deep appreciation for storytelling and art. I excel at crafting engaging player experiences through narrative design, leveraging analytics to optimize gameplay, and drawing from my artistic background to add depth and visual cohesion to my projects. Each skill reflects my passion for creating immersive worlds that captivate and inspire players.
Talks
I’m passionate about sharing knowledge and introducing game design concepts to others. Through talks and workshops, I aim to inspire curiosity, foster creativity, and exchange experiences within the industry.
Key highlights include a talk on mental health and video games, an analysis of random reinforcements in Diablo IV, training sessions for schools, and collaborations with the Basque Government and senior-focused associations to promote cognitive stimulation through gaming.
Level Design
Skilled in defining layouts that incorporate engaging scenarios, guided by detailed beat charts to ensure a balanced and immersive player experience. I excel at translating these designs into functional environments within game engines, creating spaces that align with gameplay objectives and narrative flow. A dedicated fan of Blocktober, I constantly refine my blocking techniques and stay inspired by the creative community, pushing my level design to new heights.
Quest Design and Narrative
Proficient in quest design and narrative development, utilizing flowcharts to organize ideas effectively. With strong technical creativity, I craft compelling stories that resonate with players. A lifelong reader and avid enthusiast of culture and cinema, I draw inspiration from diverse sources to enrich the narratives I create.
I am also creating my own novel right now!
Analytics and In-Game Metrics Expertise
Experienced in leveraging analytics tools, in-game event tracking, and A/B testing to optimize game performance. Through platforms like Google Analytics, I measure engagement and analyze user journeys, uncovering actionable insights to enhance our games. A/B testing allows me to refine decision-making, ensuring the best outcomes for player satisfaction and retention.
Artistic Background and Digital Art Expertise
With a strong foundation in the arts, I’ve completed an illustration course and earned a university-level diploma in digital art application. Passionate about illustration, I deeply appreciate its conceptualization, impact, and application in video games. This artistic expertise complements my work as a game designer, bringing visual storytelling and creative depth to every project.
