Hello! I'm Chris
I'm a recent Games Computing graduate from the University of Lincoln with a First Class Honours. I'm mainly a Games Programmer but I also enjoy being able to demonstrate my creativity with Game Design on projects. Some of my favourite games are:
Bravely Default; Dead by Daylight; Hyper Light Drifter; Transistor; Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland; Undertale; Smash Bros Ultimate; Professor Layton and the Curious Village.

EXPERTISE
I'M A PROGRAMMER
I have made many games over my three years studying at the University of Lincoln. I write and iterate on my code to try and make it more efficient and reusable throughout the process.
I'M A TEAM MEMBER
I can put in the work to complete one part of a whole project and make a product with other people. I appreciate feedback and collaboration to improve upon an idea and know the importance of valuing others input. I can also step up to hold a leadership role and provide guidance on how to piece together all the smaller parts of a project into a cohesive whole.
I'M A DESIGNER
I enjoy experimenting with an idea to develop it further. Having the key elements of a game doesn't mean it will necessarily come together to make a fun experience. You have to consider the user and also test, test, test!
