Playtesting. Yep, it's under NDA lock and key.

🎮 Leveling Up: My Game Dev Journey 🚀

At the start of 2024, I decided it was time to deepen my bond with video games—not just playing them, but breaking them in the name of quality. So, I enrolled in a QA Game Testing course at SKVOT, where we sharpened our skills on an indie game A Kingdom To Conquer, battled bugs in YouTrack, crafted test plans, playtest ideas, and invitations, and in the end, I walked away with a summa cum laude buff.

Not stopping there, I took another step into gamedev with a Game Design course at Anomalia. Most of it was online, but we also had a weekend workshop, where we designed and playtested a board game. My team’s creation? A game about homeless people in a futuristic world, still filling their shopping carts—but this time with a Tetris-style inventory system. Because even in dystopia, inventory management is key.

Now, I’m on the quest for a job in gamedev, picking up occasional playtesting gigs along the way—though those projects are locked behind NDAs, so no juicy spoilers (yet).
