Who am I?
My name is Simon. I’m 21 years old and currently studying Gameplay Programming at Futuregames in Stockholm. My passion for programming was something I discovered in recent years, while gaming is something that I’ve done my entire life.
I find great enjoyment and inspiration in helping others come up with solutions to their problems. This is where part of my motivation for continuous learning comes from - being able to use that knowledge to help someone. The other part of it comes from my love of progression, I'm never fully satisfied when I know there's more to learn.
I love being able to apply theory in practice. The unmatched feeling of being stuck on a problem and finally finding a solution, or going back to old code and being able to improve it with new solutions and knowledge. There are so many different solutions to each problem and that captivates me greatly.
My favorite game is Rocket League. The game is at its core very simple while still being incredibly complex and extensive. There's no one way to play the game and you can never truly say "I can't improve anymore".
Then we have other games like Minecraft, Cyberpunk 2077, Geometry Dash and Subnautica. The list goes on and on. Needless to say, I enjoy a variety of games.
