My name is Warren Andress, and I am a Game Designer from Hazlet, New Jersey. Ever since I was young, I\u2019ve had a desire to analyze and create art. At the time, I wasn\u2019t sure if I wanted to be a film director or a traditional artist but both of those visions allowed me to experiment in different forms of art, as it allowed me to apply theory that I had gained from one art to another. Over the years, I have gained a variety of knowledge and skills related to different fields of art (music, visual, game, programming, etc).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve worked in different engines and programming languages over the years, specifically ones that pertain to games but I am great at adapting to new challenges and finding a means of resolution to anything that crosses my path. I\u2019ve used languages like python, java, javascript, love2d, GML, and C# to create interactive games. Outside of programming, I also enjoy writing music as I can play the synthesizer, bass, and drums. I also like to draw to alleviate stress, but that is why I generally practice so many forms of art. Movies that have inspired me would be Terminator, Star Wars, Total Recall, The Wall, and a Clockwork Orange. Bands that have inspired me would be The Who, Pink Floyd, The Strokes, and LCD Soundsystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most recent creative project that I am proud of was a game called \u201cRacoon Revenge.\u201d It\u2019s a game published by MassDigi that I had the honor of freelancing on as a level designer. It is the first published game that I have credit on and I am very excited to have it in my portfolio. I have also worked on music over the summer, so I am very proud of the progress I have done. I am very excited to continue working in various arts, especially the interactive arts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
