I'm Ayotunde (or Ayo for short), and I'm a Technical Game Designer from London. I love working on projects that match my core values of creating meaningful experiences. My name means 'joy has returned' and I want to embody that in my work as far as possible. Currently, I'm working as an Associate Technical Designer on Fable at Playground Games, whilst independently developing my 3D platformer, Next Day Delivery, in Unreal Engine 5.

I hold a First Class MSci Computer Science with Games Technology degree from City, University of London, which I attended between September 2018 and July 2023. During my degree, I worked in a Game Design role at NaturalMotion Games, owning meta and progression features on a live service cross-platform game. Previously, I was a BAFTA Young Game Designers nominee in 2018, and have continued to be involved with BAFTA in various capacities since.

Beyond games, I love being creative however possible. I'm a digital artist, currently undergoing a traditional drawing course and building my confidence working in 3D with Blender. I'm also learning the piano! I love cooking too, and have recently gotten into baking bread.
