Hi! I‘m

Since 2012 I create video games
with various talented people
as Tinytouchtales.
We've made GUNCHO, Geo Gods, Card Crawl Adventure, Gnomitaire, Maze Machina, Miracle Merchant, Card Thief, ENYO and Card Crawl which are available on the App Store and Google Play. I've also released a few games on Steam.
I publish Game-Jam games and showcase my game ideas and prototypes on Itch.io.

Education
Mario asks: “What school education did you do?”
Hi Mario,
since i’m born in Germany this answer might not be applicable to all countries, but if you have a similar education system it might help.
In Germany you start with elementary school from there you can pick from several secondary school forms. I went to a form of high school called “Realschule”. After that i did a 3 year technical college with the main subject of information technology. The graduation there allowed me to apply to a University of applied science. I studied communication design in 11 semesters and my final thesis was focused on creating an interface design concept for touch screens.
Note: Even though we had a few game related courses at my university i never explicitly studied something related to games or game design.
