Frans Jakob Sigurdsen

Game designer

  Norway

I am an aspiring game designer, wanting to make a world to enjoy.

When I meet problems, I will be pragmatic and analyse the problem to find a solution in the bigger picture and in the smaller picture.

I am willing to challenge knowledge. Sometimes the actual right choice is to do the opposite of everyone else.

We made the game for android and PC.
In this project I had responsibilities in gamedesign, UX/UI, programming, QA test management, and as scrum master.

Game Developer  •  Hobby Project
