Introduction
Greetings dear reader, my name is Joakim Bergman. I'm a journalist as well as a game- and software -developer. My primary focus is on Game Development, with focus on Game Design, Community and Game Marketing.
I have recently finished three years of studying Game Development - Design at the University of Skövde. I was born in 1987 and has since my first day of school continued my study, without any interruptions, on to this day. You could say I'm eager to learn.
I have a great interest and passion for development, management and anything involving video games. To take a good game and making it even better is one of my greatest fantasies. To create something from scratch is something so intriguing for me so that it's difficult for me to explain.
