Martijn Reus

Software Engineer / Game Developer

Hi there! I'm Martijn, and I live in the Netherlands. I'm currently a student of Software Engineering at the University of Amsterdam. During my study, I reignited an old hobby of mine: game development. Since then, I've been diving into game design as much as I can, gaining a lot of expertise in Unity and C#. This journey has led to several completed projects that I'm really proud of.
