About Me

Hello, welcome to my page ! My name is Jordan and I'm currently in my final year at Creajeux. I've been studying game programming for over 5 years now, and I'd like to become a gameplay and AI programmer.

At college, I had no idea what I wanted to do later in life. Even though it's not a problem at that age to don't know what you want to do, it didn't suit me. One day, while talking to my father, he steered me towards video games, and that's how I discovered the world of video game creation.

Playing video games is great, but making one is two different things. In high school, I discovered the Unity game engine and quickly started small projects in my spare time. What I did to see if I liked it turned out to be a passion.

The next logical step in my studies was game programming. After 5 years and many projects, I was able to broaden my skills, both technically and in human terms. I specialized in gameplay, because I love seeing the game come to life by implementing the different mechanics that come from game design, and I enjoy collaborating with the different trades that the video game industry has to offer. I've also specialized in AI, because I love working out the logic of non-playable characters and seeing them act in a realistic way. That's why I'm currently working on my personal machine learning project.
