Meet Alvaro

If you remember our job posting from December, we’ve officially filled the position!

Alvaro recently joined our team as a Unity Game Designer and, while we’re sure you’ll get to know him in the coming months, here’s his brief introduction:

“Hello there! It's been an exciting first week, getting to know everyone and learning about Clever Endeavour's new game. I can already tell it's gonna be a fun ride.'

A bit about me: I wanted to be a filmmaker before I realized there are additional ways I can apply my creativity. At some point, I learned how to code just well enough to make interactive things move on a screen... which, to make it short, led me down the never-ending path of game design.

From there, spending way too much time on itch.io made me develop a taste for innovative and wacky games, which is one of the things I plan to bring to the team. But let's be real, my true mission is to beat all my teammates at Ultimate Chicken Horse.”
