Tomorrow I will head to Leipzig, Germany for the Games Convention Developer Conference and another two days at Games Convention itself. Really looking forward to meeting interesting people and listening to some informative lectures. You may most likely encounter me at the Mediadesign University booth during breaks at GCDC and afterwards at the Mediadesign University booth K33 in hall 2.

The First Post
Wow! I finally managed to create my own little website. Only a blog right now, but I believe it will grow over time.
So what’s it all about? Basically I’ll try to regularly update it with my thoughts on game design and game development.
Why did I chose this particular topic? Because I think that games are the next step in media evolution. And although the industry around this interactive media is already huge, the medium itself has yet to mature. But this is only possible if people start thinking about games and what they are all about. So when I decided to study “Game Design” at Mediadesign University of Applied Sciences in Munich, Germany, I did not only want to start developing games but also learn about the things behind the scenes of this fascinating medium. I hope this blog will allow me to share my thoughts on game design and development with many people at least as passionate about this topic as me.
What to expect? I will try to post on at least a semi-monthly basis. Since I mayself am very interested in team and project management, game design, storytelling and a little bit of coding, I will mostly write about these topics. I am also looking for a nice design and working on additional pages about me and the stuff I am doing.
I'm a student in "Game Design" (B.A.) at Mediadesign University of Applied Sciences in Munich, Germany. I'm interested in everything about games and the science behind it. Yet my focus is on game design, storytelling, producing and team-management.
