Game designer

Hello! I'm Gonzalo Bourdieu. I have worked on different  kind of projects primarily as a GAME DESIGNER, I have contributions as a COMBAT,UI and TECHNICAL aspect of the projects i worked with, so I enjoy every part of the development while trying to help in any way I can. 
I am currently working as a QA Tester for Virtuos France, and has worked on the remaster for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.

The main thing that keeps me in game development is challenging myself to learn and create new and interactive environments with people who share the same passion, for people who want to feel the same passion as I do when I play games.
