PROJECTS
Research Paper
In my bachelor thesis, I studied the tech tree of "Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition". With the help of an in-depth analysis, I examined which factors contribute to the strength of a civilization.
Online Game
This online escape game was created as part of my work as a working student at House of Tales Berlin. The player accompanies the triad member When De on a dangerous mission and has to solve various puzzles.
Scavenger Hunt
I developed this Viking-themed scavenger hunt privately for Halloween. The scavenger hunt follows an overarching story around Norse mythology and includes various themed puzzles.
Warcraft 3 Custom Map
I developed this Warcraft 3 custom map together with a fellow student as part of a university project. The map contains elements from the auto chess genre and combines them with a PvE/PvP dungeon crawler.
PC / Mobile Game
I developed this jump and run game together with fellow students as part of a university project. The player can switch between the real world and the shadow world, which causes some objects to change their properties.
Half Life 2 Map
This Half Life 2 map I developed as part of a university project and is an insert into the flow of the original campaign. The player explores and fights his way through a run-down underground laboratory.
Digital Card Game
I developed this digital single player card game together with fellow students as part of a university project. The player plays cards to gain more resources and build a pyramid as quickly as possible.

ABOUT ME
I am a motivated and interested prospective game designer. My character is mainly characterized by my openness, joy of communication and humor. In addition, I bring a lot of (good) ideas, creativity and enthusiasm. So far I could only gain practical work experience in university projects, a working student job and private projects. All the more I am looking forward to continuing my learning and improving my skills at a company in the future.
