A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Rubén Notario, game programmer and aspiring game designer. Like many others, since I was little I have been passionate about video games. 

I started studying computer science when I was 16 years old, then app development, and then game developmentalthough I had already studied in my spare time on my own.

Meanwhile I discovered virtual reality, and it was a crush, I wanted to be part of the growth of this technology. My goal is to forge an experience to have something to offer in the world of game development and/or virtual reality.
