Hello!

My name's Owen, a technical games designer from Northern Ireland who's worked with Unreal since it became free for students back in 2014.

​

My games journey began as a kid with LEGO: Rock Raiders and Beanotown Racing (unfortunately somewhat forgotten shovelware gems), and that spark has carried right through to today where I'm happy to be making similarly engaging experiences for others to enjoy.

​

Please feel free to shoot me a message if you have any questions!
