About Me

Hi I am Jonathan B. Jørgensen.
I’m a game developer from Denmark. I have always liked math, problem-solving and games. My passions led me to start experimenting with game development from a young age. My long-term dream is to be part of a small independent game studio working on fun and exciting games. In the future I would like to learn more about low-level optimizations and graphics code.

I like to work in small teams, where I am comfortable at taking a leading role. When I am working on something, I often take a very perfectionistic approach and usually spend a lot of time optimizing and getting the code just right. I like using new technologies and coming up with my own solutions. I am also a huge supporter of open source software, tools and games.
