Hi, my name is Tien, I'm a game
designer and this is my game design blog. I will be posting about my
previous works and using this blog mostly as a game design
portfolio. I will also post general game design concepts and ideas
that I find interesting. So please allow me to tell you a little about my
professional background.
I went to the Art Institute of Portland
for Game Art and Design. Although I was always interested in game
design, I started out in the industry as a 3D artist. My general
knowledge of game design was developed mostly through a few classes
in school, indie projects, and websites like Gamasutra. I didn't
pick up any formal game design knowledge until I started working at
Zynga.
