MY INDIE SOLO DEVELOPER JOURNEY

I started working with 3D back in 2011. I’ve enrolled a class of 3D Studio Max at Eureka ATC (Autodesk Training Center) in Italy, where I learned the principles of Modelling, Texturing and also Rendering.

I liked 3D so much that I wanted to go deeper, so I decided to go to Gnomon School of Visual Effects in Hollywood, California.

At Gnomon I was able to take a class that covered a 2 years program in only 3 months. I went deep into Modelling, Technical Rigging, and Dynamics, and learned from amazing teachers such as Mark Dedecker (Golden Axe, Iron Man, Venom) and Maks Naporowski (The Matrix, Spiderman, Harry Potter) ,and I had the fortune to learn and share the experience with other amazing artists.

After Gnomon I decided to focus more on Game Development and in 2021 I created my own video game and I got the license from Nintendo to publish it on the Nintendo Switch. I founded Cranky Alien Games with the goal of publishing Swoon! Earth Escape in 2022.

In Cranky Alien Games Ltd, I am the Director, and for Swoon! I cover all the aspects of Production and Publishing of the project, working as a Game Designer, Game Developer, Concept Artist, 3D Modeller, Texture Artist, Technical Artist, 3D Animator, UX/UI Designer, Programmer,  Tester. I also cover the Marketing side of the project, Social media channels, discord channel, deal with publishers and investors.
