I'm Jake Hood, a postgraduate in Games Programming with a strong passion for UX design and hands-on programming skills (C++, C#, Unreal Engine blueprints). I enjoy solving problems and making features more relevant by refining UI/UX and gameplay balance. I am hardworking, reliable, and eager to learn, with a preference for indie game projects. I love collaborating with teams to create engaging experiences that are still approachable for new players. Professionally, I worked with World Makers on Deceit 2 to balance the game, introduce new roles, and improve onboarding through clear UI. I led a final major project at university, organizing the team, assigning roles, and driving collaboration to a winning entry. I’m actively involved in playtesting and am seeking opportunities to shape games people enjoy at indie studios.…I'm Jake Hood, a postgraduate in Games Programming with a strong passion for UX design and hands-on programming skills (C++, C#, Unreal Engine blueprints).
