My name is Natalya Newman, an author and game developer based in New Zealand, originally from the UK.
I am in my Honours year of studying a Bachelor of Screen Arts at Massey University, majoring in Game Development with a focus on game writing, narrative design, level design, and environmental storytelling.
I am passionate about weaving emotive and engaging stories through a blend of narrative design and environmental storytelling, using my knowledge of game mechanics to seamlessly integrate the different aspects together.
I self-published a fantasy novel in 2023, and have since been working on a medieval fantasy trilogy alongside my Game Development studies.
