about

std::string my_name = "Liam Naden";

I am a games programmer focusing on C# and C++. My passions lie within tools programming, I love creating things and seeing my code be easily usable and customisable in the engine, though my skills stretch far beyond that.

I've had a passion for programming since I wrote my first "Hello World" script in Python back in 2016. Seeing text I'd written manipulate something as simple as words on a screen captivated me, and I've been chasing that feeling ever since. When I moved on to Computer Science at A-Level, I was given the chance to build a piece of software of my choice, I built a game in Defold, and have wanted to make more ever since.

I've loved gaming since I picked up my first controller at about 4 years old, starting with games like MotorStorm® through to Hollow Knight® and Deadlock more recently (and plenty in between). Naturally that led me toward becoming a games developer, each line of code is both a joy to write and a chance to learn something new.
