matthavik - Game Developer

Developer. Designer. Player.

In no particular order [test].

I’m a game developer and designer with most of my professional experience in MMOs and RPGs, working across gameplay systems, game feel and UI/UX. I enjoy game jams as a chance to experiment, stretch my skills and learn new things - and somehow, I’ve even won a few. When I’m not making or playing games, you’ll probably find me up a mountain somewhere.
