ABOUT ME

Hey, I'm River, a game developer from Amsterdam. My interest lies where tech meets art, specializing in tool development and shaders.

Outside of work, some of my favourite games are Myst, Minecraft, and Walkabout Minigolf, and I enjoy boardgames, Lego, and VR.

I also like to immerse myself in sci-fi like Doctor Who and Star Wars, and murder-mysteries like Midsommer Murders and Death in Paradise.
