Pablo Martínez López

Level Designer

As the passionate video gamer that I am, I dedicate most of my time to both developing and playing them. And this has led me to pursue a career in this industry. Having completed a degree in "Video Game Design and Development", which has given me an overview of the whole video game creation process.

I not only have a good understanding of the design needs, but also the rest of the departments, so I can easily communicate with them. I am particularly interested in level design combined with game mechanics; thinking about how to make them fun, how to make them work well together, but still leaving enough freedom for the player to think about the options they have to solve each situation. My expertise and calling is in game design, sharing experience on the road along with the professionals with whom I work.
