ABOUT ME

Hi my name is Jacob Daniel Simpson!

​

I’m a high energy Level Designer who’s not just passionate about making great games, I want to break the barrier completely with my team and constantly push the limits of not just me but everyone around me.
I’ve proven to be an extremely hardworking individual who works not only to improve my skills and knowledge but actively work to help my teammates also.
Games aren’t made by a single person and working with other passionate people to make a brilliant experience is why I’m in this industry to begin with.

​

In my spare time I'm a competitive cheerleader! (Bet you didn't see that coming).

I also love training in Muay Thai and being active in general!

​

To boot I'm a massive social creature, I can talk you to death about almost anything and just love meeting and talking to new people in general!

​

Thank you!

    During October 2019 me and 5 other UCLAN students went down to London EGX 2019 to take part in a 2 day game jam!
    During this time we produced the game "Nan Turismo" and proceed further to create a small team called LunchBox Games.
    This was a fantastic experience because I was able to go on stage with the rest of the team and present the game and idea Live on Twitch!
    The presentation was live to hundreds of people and also enhanced my confidences and level design skills greatly!
    After EGX we continued to expand the game and work towards more events to promote the company.
