Other Merits

MiFF GameJam
Organizer and participant in MiFF’s yearly GameJam event 2011 – 2015.
These events were arranged in a way so every member could participate, regardless of prior experience.
I have had roles such as Level Designer, QA, Gameplay Scripter and Producer during these events, but in most cases I have been doing a lot of different work at the same project.
From this I have learned a lot about working in groups with different skillsets, and to instruct people in usage of the tools available.

Games from these gamejams can be found here.
