"Games offer you journeys,
ones that you're a part of."
Hi there! I'm Siriyakorn Sakolaut, a game design student from Bangkok, Thailand. My native nickname is Praew, but I also go by Panda.
Sine I was young, video games have opened up and shaped a part of my world. They introduced me to diverse forms of experience, providing journeys that feel as if driven by my own hands — and it's this very experience I aim to share with my players.
That is why my specialties and focus include crafting creative and immersive gameplay, satisfying user experience tailored to target players, level design that bring out the potential of game mechanics, and player-driven narrative.
My goal is to create unforgettable, emotionally engaging experiences for players worldwide, and I’m on own my journey of mastering how to do so!
