Bruno Machado

I am a Brazilian Game Designer and Programmer who has loved video games for as long as I can remember. Growing up with games made me curious about the worlds, systems and experiences behind them, eventually leading me to pursue game development.

I enjoy combining the creative and technical sides of development, with particular interest in gameplay programming, game design, systems design and UI/UX. I am especially passionate about indie games and metroidvanias, but I enjoy exploring many different genres and understanding what makes games memorable.
