JAVIER BENITO ABOLAFIO

Video Games, Engines & Graphics Programmer

I am a Junior Programmer who first graduated from ESAT (Valencia) in HND in Computing and then from Sheffield Hallam University in BSc Computer Science for Games. So please, before moving into my projects, let me introduce myself.

I started coding at the age of 13 small tools and applications in VisualBasic thanks to my dad. Later on, I learned a bit of Python during my High School. There is where my coding passion comes from, so at the age of 24 I joined ESAT -a specialized video games university- to study Video Games Programming, where I became proficient in C and C++ and got graps on ARM, Graphics Programming, Unity and especially Unreal Engine.

Then I joined Sheffield Hallam University to complete the BSc (Hons) Computer Science for Games, where I learned to work with PS4 hardware, developed a video game in PS4 with my own engine and carried out an advanced graphics technique as my Final Year Project.

But I am more than just a programmer; in my spare time I am also an avid tennis player, a passionate gamer who loves exploring and discovering new mechanics and features, and an artist who enjoys drawing Pokémon.

Here in my portfolio, I will showcase my journey as a dedicated video games, engines and graphics programmer. Please, let me invite you to explore a selection of my work which includes some published games, highlights my skills and discovers my background in gameplay and video games technology.

So, come take a journey through my work, and let's embark on new adventures together in the world of game development and beyond.
