About Me

My name is Esteban Morales; I am 26 years old and originally from Chile. I moved to Sweden in 2019 to pursue Videogame Programming, what I am truly passionate about.
Since I can remember I have enjoyed the act of creating, such as in sculpting and drawing. However, when I discovered Game Development, I instantly fell in love. The medium of games is full to the brim with potential, I am excited just thinking about a new mechanic or concepts and how to bring it to life. Programming puts in my hands a power, a power to create complex experiences different to any other medium. I feel like game development is still in its infancy, still so much to discover and create, and it has so much potential!

Area of interest

I am interested in Gameplay Programming, I love to see a game come to life as we work on it. I enjoy working with designers and bringing our imagination into reality. I also like writing code that serves as a base that can blossom into interesting mechanics, like creating crafting systems or a noble platforming mechanic that has several applications. I am interested in exploring Artificial Intelligence; I love the illusion of intelligence in systems and NPCs that we can make to enhance the player´s experience. In addition, Tool Programing has also peaked my interest; it has been fun creating tools to help designers create levels quickly or aiding game development in other unseen ways.
