Age of Wonders III

Age of Wonders III is a 4X turn-based strategy game developed by Triumph Studios. The game is set in a high fantasy world where players rule their empire and fight against other empires in a struggle for power. Players can customise the leader of their empire by choosing from a variety of races, classes, and magic specialisations. These choices determine what type of units, spells, and technologies are available to the player and thus result in a large variety of playstyles.

2 Puzzled 2 Solve

2 Puzzled 2 Solve is a Metroidvania game with a unique twist: the player controls both their character and the world they move through. The player needs to navigate through levels from point A to B by jumping around in platforming mode and shifting and rotating the level as a sliding puzzle in puzzle mode. All levels are connected with each other through an overworld where players can unlock new levels and progress through the game by collecting items and learning new things about the game mechanics. The game also has an accessible and easy to use level editor which has been designed so that players can immediately jump in and start to create their own levels.

Starcraft II Maps

Starcraft II is one of the games I really enjoy to play and watch. I follow the e-sport scene quite actively and frequently play and discuss the game with my friends. Eventually I started to dive into the map making scene and before I knew it I was making maps for starcraft II in the Galaxy Editor.
