About

Hi, I’m Daniel, a Games Development student with a background in programming and software development.

I’ve been working with languages such as C, C++, C#, Python, ASP.NET, HTML and CSS, with a particular interest in game development, gameplay programming and building systems that combine good design with solid functionality.

My projects have included developing complete game prototypes from the ground up, working on movement and collision systems, turn-based gameplay, UI and menus, audio integration, level design, game states, debugging and documentation. One of my projects, Fractured, was built in C using SDL and gave me hands-on experience managing an entire game project independently.

I enjoy both the technical and creative sides of development, whether that means implementing gameplay mechanics, designing interfaces, solving programming problems or turning an idea into something playable.

I’m currently studying Games Development at Universidade Europeia and looking for freelance, junior and entry-level opportunities where I can continue developing my skills, contribute to real projects and gain professional experience.

I’m particularly interested in game development, gameplay programming, software development and projects where I can work across both the visual and technical sides of a product.
