Crafting Worlds, One Experience at a Time

My name is Santiago Franco, I’m a Game, Level & UX/UI Designer. What I enjoy the most about creating games is the creative process mixed with problem-solving that brings a multidisciplinary team to create a unique experience. My goal is to always evoke feelings in the player that can be remembered long after finishing the game.

What I Love To Do

Game Design

I specialize in designing captivating core loops that keep players fully engaged and immersed throughout their gameplay experience

UX/UI Design

With 5 years of experience in this field, I specialize in crafting intuitive UIs that enhance player experience without being intrusive and managing and refining gameplay to ensure players enjoy the best the game offers.

Level Design

What is a game mechanic without a level that lets the player enjoy the full potential of it. I enjoy  creating levels that engage with the player and push their knowledge of how the game works
