Hello there!
My name is Mats Roelandt, and I have always been obsessed with the inner workings of games.
My first interaction with games was when I was a young boy, my parents got me a DS XL for my birthday. I was instantly hooked. A whole new world opened up for me on those two little screens. Ever since then, I’ve loved playing video games, having owned a Wii, 3DS, Nintendo Switch, PS2, PS3, PS4, and my trusty PC. I’ve always been intrigued by games that try to push boundaries. Whenever I saw something new, I was awestruck.
At a young age, I realized that technology came more easily to me than to most people. So, of course, I decided to pursue my high school studies in electronics. My course was called E-ICT/Electricity-Electronics, and I loved every part of it. There was something so fascinating about discovering how something that looks like pure magic actually works. But still, I realized that something was missing. No matter how much fun I was having, I always turned to games for my true enjoyment.
So when I graduated, I was left with a difficult choice: continue on the path I was following, or take a leap of faith and pursue the hidden passion I had always felt. Judging by my portfolio, I’m sure you can tell which choice I made, and I’ve never regretted it since. Every day I learn something new, and every day I feel more fulfilled than the last.
As I’m writing this, I’m in my second year of independent game production, and I’m looking forward to seeing what possibilities open up for me in the future!
