About me

Hi! I’m Christopher Dalby and this is my WordPress portfolio.

Throughout my childhood, I’ve been hooked into the medium of video games ever since I first played Pokemon and Mario on my DS. This has led me to study Game Design at the University of Hull. 

 

My Inspirations

I have always been drawn into games that get creative or bend the expectations of traditional games.

2010’s NieR had the biggest effect on me. It has an impactful and mind-bending story along with gameplay that switches up genres as you play from a traditional hack and slash to a bullet hell to a platformer.

Another game that inspires me is Psychonauts. its creative levels are based around different characters’ mental states and colourful scenery based around their personality.

 

I aspire to give others new experiences through the video games I create, and I want to create games that experiment and get creative with the medium of games and make unique experiences you cant get in any other way.

“My belief is that if there are already games that other developers are putting out that are satisfying to the player, with great action or an excellent story, then I desire to create something different – a different type of experience.”
