How I became a Game Designer
My name is Adam Thompson and I'm a game designer. I specialise in system design but have experience in level design and game development as well.
​
Throughout my education I always had a mix of technical and artistic skills and interests that I often found that I had to choose between. Maths and Computer Science were some of my best subjects but so was English Literature.
​
In college, I once again compromised with Maths and Computer Science being joined by Film Studies.
​
When it came time for me to choose my course in University, I finally had the opportunity to combine my skillset into one direction for my studies.
​
The combination of technical problem solving and artistic expression are what made me fall in love with Game Design.
