ABOUT ME
My design philosophy revolves around collaboration, creativity, and a continuous pursuit for understanding in both the artistic and technical sides of game development. I excel in understanding complex information and working seamlessly with cross-functional teams—whether it’s software developers, artists, or sound designers. I thrive in dynamic environments, quickly generating and clearly communicating my ideas tailored to the needs of the team. Confident in my decision-making, I draw on a deep knowledge of games and an intuitive understanding of genre nuances. At the core of my approach is player empathy I constantly strive to create experiences that resonate with players. I embrace the challenge such as working with incomplete information and filling in the gaps to create engaging content.

My name is Dylan Liriano, I am a game designer and writer looking to break into the games industry. Games have been my passion ever since I started playing on my cousins hand-me-down GameCube with a scratched copy of Luigi's Mansion. Many years later in 2019 after buying the game "Firewatch" on my Nintendo Switch, a purchase I was not so sure about because it had absolutely no guns or action in it. I played through the game and loved it, looking for more I found a developer commentary playthrough. Playing through this mode was fascinating and shifted my perspective on gaming from “What I could play” to “What can I create”. Since then I've worked on my fair share of student games and worked alongside amazing industry professionals and plan on continuing in the industry for a long long time.
