About Me

Hi, I'm Esmat, a game developer who enjoys creating fun, engaging, and interactive experiences using Unity and C#. I love turning ideas into playable prototypes and designing gameplay that feels intuitive, rewarding, and memorable.

One of my strongest skills is creative planning and game design thinking. I enjoy brainstorming unique game concepts, designing mechanics, planning progression systems, and thinking critically about how players will experience a game from beginning to end. Whether it's creating new power-ups, improving game flow, or developing interesting narratives, I enjoy finding creative solutions that make games more enjoyable.

My favorite games include:

OverwatchAnimal CrossingOvercooked! 2Monument Valley

These games inspire me through their creativity, strong visual identity, memorable gameplay, and ability to bring people together.
