About

Hi, I’m Austin Allan Flynn—a game developer and designer with a passion for creating engaging player experiences. I earned a BSc (Hons) in Computer Games Application Development from Abertay University in Dundee and currently work as an Associate Technical Designer at Build A Rocket Boy, where I own features for MindsEye and help maintain the UGC tools. I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy turning creative ideas into polished gameplay.

I also enjoy modding Bethesda games, running tabletop RPG campaigns, and volunteering with local scouts. My technical toolkit includes C++, C#, Lua, and Unreal/Unity workflows, and I love bridging design and engineering to ship high-quality experiences.
