It’s done, it’s finally done! My first, big huge, project as a professional Game Designer has been finished! It all started one year ago, when I finally joined the ranks of a Game Designer at Gameloft! And boy what a year! When I first started, I never knew I could learn so many things in [...]

Last week was the first time I heard about it. I sat through the [...]

A town where wonderfull things don’t happen very often
Posted: February 20, 2011 in BlogTags: Bucharest, Magic, Wonderful
But when they happen, that moment becomes so magical that it remains, hopefully, in your mind for all eternity. I’ve been in Bucharest for about 6 months in order to attend college. I also got a job in QA at Gameloft and I went out in clubs when ever I had the chance. I had [...]
