Hello,

My name is Katrin Kalaw and I am an indie game designer. I study at RMIT majoring in Design Digital Media.

 

Tabletop games and video games were a huge part of my childhood as well as growing up. My brothers and cousin introduced me to playing a lot of games to spend time with me, that experience then translated into a form of socialization I constantly used to make friends. My passion for games grew when I learned about how they were made behind the scenes.

 

While studying Digital Media, I gained experience in all stages of developing games on my own and in a group. The first game I developed was a flash game with the theme of phone addiction. The game was developed using JavaScript. The next game I developed is called Bob N Bablinsky which I developed with a group using Unreal Engine. The game was inspired by “Overcooked” but instead of cooking, the mechanics simulate space mining. I am currently developing three Star Wars themed games with different genres. Aside from developing games, I also like doing 3D modelling and animation.

 

My favorite games are the Ace Attorney series and The World Ends with You. Games that I’m currently enjoying are Stardew Valley and Honkai Star Rail.
