I am a Programmer at SUMO Digital Pune India and have been developing games for over 4 years. In some ways I was always interested in computer graphics and visual effects, which developed into a passion for creating games.

 

I started my journey in game development using Adobe Flash and it felt just the right tool for prototyping 2d games and animations. Not long after I learned about an awesome 2d physics engine Box2d and it changed the entire course of my journey, introducing me to scripting which was mostly in actionscript for that time. But soon I realized that Flash was getting outdated, so I switched to OpenGL and C++ which helped me develop a new point of view towards game development. Meanwhile I also learned about some awesome game engines and libraries like Unity3d, LibGDX, Cocos2dx, etc.

 

Besides my technical skills, I am a very hard working person and a fast learner. I am also an anime enthusiast and when I am not creating games I like to spend my time watching memes (on 9gag obviously) and reading research papers / articles on new algorithms and techniques used in computer graphics and game development.
