Hello! I’m Charlie Birchall, a game designer and developer who has grown up with games. They’ve given me thousands of hours of enjoyment, and I’m passionate about creating experiences that can inspire others the same way. Most of my time learning to code and design has come at university, where I focused on both design and programming. I’ve learned Unity and Unreal Engine, and I write scripts in C# and C++. I’m excited to someday lead my own indie studio and I value the creative freedom that comes with indie development.
