My name is Matthew Knight and I am a graduate from the University of California Irvine, majoring in Game Design and Interactive Media!

Games have had a major influence on my life ever since I started playing on the Leapfrog Leapster in the 1st grade. From there my love for games has only increased. Kingdom Hearts gave me values about friendships and perseverance that I hold to this day, Skyrim taught me to love exploration and how much there is to do in the world, and Undertale motivated me to pursue a career in games.

I want to design games that influence others just as much as my favorite games have influenced me. There is so much potential in what games can do and I intend to be a part of that. I plan on creating stories that captivate players, levels and worlds that players will fall in love with, and game systems that add up to an amazingly fun adventure.

Fun Facts

• I can and will explain the entire lore of Kingdom Hearts up to the eighth installment for over an hour. I would then spend another hour passionately discussing the issues with the latest installment.

• I enjoy playing Dungeons and Dragons and am currently running a campaign involving closing various rifts to other planes of existence with a group of players who just want to burn every city to the ground

• My newest favorite games have been Cult of the Lamb and Horizon Zero Dawn, both of which I have just finished with all of their trophies, so now I am searching for my next game obsession.
