About Me
Hi! I'm Tanapat, a games programmer from Abertay. I've been programming in C++ and C# primarily over the past 5-6 years, recently delving into python for tools and automation. I've worked professionally as a programmer in a few different contexts, done over 30 personal projects ranging from 24h game jams to month long projects, and well, too much extra stuff in between.
I've recently finished at my own indie company Afterfire Studios where we developed a co-op gravedigging game, Shovel & Swindle, while doing a Masters and Bachelours degree at Abertay University.
I have a passion for learning, not just broadly, but also in depth. This desire to learn the ins and out of something have served the projects I've worked on well when it comes to thinking about building systems for scalability and flexibility. On the flip side, I have a very versatile skillset, from programming to tech art, which provides immense value for smaller teams.
My passion for this entire field of game development, creative industries, and tech all culminate into this weird amalgamation of different skillsets and pursuits which you'll see below. I'm more than happy to talk about anything I've done, and you can contact me on LinkedIn @ TanapatSomrid
