Pete Brisbourne’s Summary

Passionate game developer with ambitious focus set on the area of game design. Experience in the industry has been built from a foundation of genuine life long interest leading to academic achievements in the study of development. This has then been followed by a move into the industry, success in QA and recently the move of a direct career in design itself.

Career goals:

- Explore and develop original IP and ideas to create rich, fresh and enjoyable games.

- To learn from those with a greater wealth of knowledge and experience than myself.

- Seek to work with all different platform types (mainstream, mobile and casual) to develop a larger understanding of games and the audiences of the modern day.

- Promote the attitudes of good design and development because making games should be, after all, fun!

"I grew up playing some amazing games that brought countless hours of enjoyment to my generation, some of which I still consider to be the best titles I've ever played. It is my simple wish to continue this trend and focus my efforts to build games as inspiring and be able to offer them to generations to come."
