Portfolio. Student. Game design. Writing.
My name is Charlotte Fels. I am a 22 year old Dutch student. After having studied Games Design in the Netherlands for three years, I decided to continue these studies in sunny England because it would be a great experience. It has not let me down. So far, it has been a great way to meet people from all sorts of backgrounds and to learn how to work with people from different cultures. Even though the Netherlands and England are geographically speaking not that far apart, there are a lot of interesting differences! (note, they drench their fries in vinegar here, not mayonnaise)
I have a passion for writing, and I specialize myself in designing, with a focus for writing in games, level design and balancing gameplay. I love coming up with and developing ideas for games. In my writing I tend to focus on psychological ideas. Psychology fascinates me, and in my games I want to create interesting or sometimes even crazy experiences for the user.
While studying journalism briefly, I achieved a lot of writing experience and learned a lot about editing as well. I no longer mind killing my darlings to create a better project. My aim is always to create an amazing experience for the player.
Besides creating games I enjoy gaming in my spare time. These games vary from League of Legends to chess to BioShock and yes, to sometimes even Candy Crush. I love reading a good book and travelling. So far I have mainly travelled through Ireland and England, though I plan on exploring more of the south of Europe and Scandinavia soon.
