About
Hi, I’m Daniel 👋 — Game Developer Extraordinaire
Welcome to my corner of the internet! 🎮 It’s awesome to connect with you.
How It Started… 🌟
I began my professional journey back in 2009 as a 3D Artist at a small studio creating PC retail titles. Over the years, I sharpened my craft in the browser and mobile gaming industries, collaborating with amazing teams at Bigpoint and InnoGames in Hamburg, Germany.
After 8 exciting years as a 3D Artist (even stepping into senior roles), I realized I wanted to follow my true passion—programming games in Unity3D—which I was doing since 2012.
“Every journey begins with a single step, and for me, that step was learning to code.”
I dove headfirst into this challenge, earning my B.Sc. in Software Engineering in just 3.5 years while working full-time.
…How It’s Going 🚀
In 2018, InnoGames gave me the chance to level up, transitioning into a full-time software developer role. That leap opened doors to a thrilling career:
- Developing mobile games using Unity3D.
- Joining Unity Technologies as a Software Developer, where I spent 2.5 incredible years.
- Moving on to Voodoo.io as a Senior Game Developer, crafting engaging experiences for players worldwide.
When I’m Not Working… 🕹️
In my downtime, you’ll often find me:
- Experimenting with personal game projects, especially strategy games (though I tend to get distracted by the next big idea 😅).
- Playing sports, gaming, watching movies, or enjoying time with friends and especially with my family 👨👩👧
What You’ll Find Here ✍️
On this blog, I share:
