My background for wanting to be a game designer

Hi, I'm George Green, and this is why I want to go into the Games Industry.

From a young age, I've always had an interest in video games. From my first games, which was Medievil and Gex: Deep Cover Gecko on the original PlayStation, and Ratchet and Clank on the PS2. To my current favourite games, Terraria, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Rainbow Six: Seige. As well as the passion I have for tabletop games like D&D, Magic the Gathering and board games like Betrayal at House on the Hill

In school I started showing some interest in the making of games, me and a few of my friends attempted to design and make a video game when we were in our early teens. But before that, the creativity of level design that came from hours and hours of LittleBigPlanet in junior school. And towards the end of secondary school and the start of my time in college I was making mods for games like Terraria and Don't Starve Together.

This is also where my love of design and art for games came through as well. As well as making an anime-themed texture pack for Terraria, In the final couple of years of school, I started playing Dungeons and Dragons. Which started my enjoyment of Character Design. Which grew and grew all the way into Uni, to fully drawing out and designing characters like Zephyr. (Pictured Right)
