Who I Am
and What I Do.
I'm Alan and I love making video games. I spend my days developing games and attending game jams! I was the Main Prize Winner at IGJAM16 in Colonge, Germany. When I am not developing games, I am playing them, playing touch rugby, reading books, learning a new language or hiking.
I am a conscientious person who works hard and plays harder while paying attention to detail. I'm flexible, quick to pick up new skills and eager to learn from others. I have lots of ideas and enthusiasm.
