Michael Chen

Hi! I am Michael Chen, a student from Aalto University. In addition to my academic pursuits, I enthusiastically immerse myself in the world of indie game development, where I refine my skills in Unity, C#, and pixel art. I find game development to be a fascinating field that combines technical skills with programming, creativity as well as problem-solving. It is challenging, yet fun at the same time and allows me to express my creativity.

A bit about myself --- I am an avid gamer, drawn to diverse fantasy games like the Ys franchise and The Witcher 3. My passion for game development ignited during my first year at Aalto University. A particular course project involving a text-based game captured my fascination, sparking my love for game development and programming in general. Witnessing the complexity of problems and the satisfaction of crafting solutions appealed to me.

Currently I am working on Legends of Silvan, a 2D action-adventure platformer RPG game developed in Unity engine. While still in its early stages, this project holds promise and will require some time before reaching a publishable level.

Overall, I am a curious and passionate individual who thrives on challenges and embraces opportunities for learning and growth. I am excited to see where my game development journey continues!
