About Me

Hi ! I am Matthieu, Technical level designer, Game designer and QA Tester living in Rennes. Passionate by the creative sector since I can hold a gamepad and watch a movie, I was always amazed by the worlds they developped and the stories they told, especially the way video games does. I think that, whether there is a huge story behind a pixel or not, the immersion that interactivity allows makes us feel the emotions more intensely. It is with this mindset that I chose to start video game studies in 2021.

Recently graduated of ESMA's Video Game degree, I am looking for a job in the sector of Technical Design, the discipline where I have decided to specialize during my studies. Being the perfect gateway between entertaining with good mechanics and engaging with a good storytelling, being involved in all the steps of production makes it the dream job to me.

Through my years of studies, I learned the fundamental principles of game design and level design but also the basics of programming logic and an artistic eye (that still needs glasses!). My personal experiences made me deepen these bases and practice new sofwares.

Among my abilities, I can :

• Conceptualize and implement level structures (Design Documentation and Blockout)

• Test game / level mechanics and script special events (Programming and Prototyping)

• Report bug following a settled protocole and setup playtests (Q.A. Testing)

• Supervise a level production and communicate special intentions (Creative Lead)

• Create prototype systems that give UI or in-game feedbacks (System Design)
