About Me
Hey there, I'm Jakob. I'm a game programmer and designer from Denmark with expertise in combat and level design as well as experience with various disciplines.
I've been making games for since i was 12,, starting with mods for Warcraft 3, and then moving on to making and releasing my own games.
Throughout the years i have worked on many different disciplines including Combat design, level design, VFX work, tool development, engine programming, sound design, lighting, shader work and more. Recently i've worked as gameplay designed and programmer at Rockstar, though the project is under strict NDA.
This site is a collection of some of the projects i have worked on - both professional and personal. If you only check out one thing on this site though, i suggest taking a look at the Seth Character Spotlight or my resume.
