Hello, I’m Thamil, a game designer with an MSc in Computer Games Design. I design and implement gameplay systems and prototypes in Unreal Engine, and I love refining ideas through playtesting and iteration. I’ve led interdisciplinary teams from concept to delivery and won the TIGA Creative Assembly Award (Best Student Game, 2021). I’m also experienced producing clear, thorough documentation that keeps teams aligned. If you’re hiring, I’d love to chat about how I can help.
