Hello! I’m Joan Damià Rosal, an honors graduate in Game Design & Development from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, with a focus on systems design, mechanics, and level design for 2D and 3D experiences, and a particular strength in narrative and worldbuilding. I’ve been trusted as the sole designer on projects requiring complete GDD creation, story, and worldbuilding, and I collaborate fluently with artists, programmers, and producers to translate bold ideas into playable experiences. My toolkit spans Unity, Unreal, UX/UI, Figma for blockouts and UI, and VR/AR/XR interactive design. I’m a trained voice actor in Catalan, Spanish, and English, which informs my approach to character, dialogue, and performance direction.
