Hello, I’m John Brandes. I’m a 2024 CSUMB graduate with a degree in communication design and a concentration in game design. I have an appreciation for classic video games and the experiences they can create that have been left behind. I love making games, and I'm planning to pursue a career in the industry post-graduation, or at least dedicate time to personal game projects.
