A DESIGNER

 

Hello! My name is Jorge and, like the title says, I am a level designer. I grew up in Madrid, where I spent my childhood plotting to, some day, become a game maker. The problem was that, back then, wanting to be a game developer was like wanting to be an astronaut. Nobody would take you seriously!

 

That didn't affect my motivation, and I trained everyday with games like Banjo Kazooie, Super Mario 64, Final Fantasy 7, and many many more, slowly but steadily honing my game skills. After lots of gaming and hard work, a Bachelor's degree in computer engineering and math allowed me to become a game programmer. My passion though, was telling stories, planning encounters, and creating crazy mechanics.

 

Two years after that first programming job, I graduated as a Level Designer from the SMU Guildhall and started making games professionally. The Guildhall gave me the opportunity to be that astronaut, the chance to create those games that I dreamed about when I was a kid. And I am still gaming, still learning, and above all, I am dedicated to creating fun experiences that players will remember with a smile.
