About Me

Hi! I’m Sampo

I’m a developer from Finland with a passion for design and programming. I've been using computers since the early 90s, and I enjoy the entire development process.

I’ve released two indie games on Steam, handling all the programming, art, and design myself.

In addition to game development, I also have experience in web development for various clients, and have freelanced as a 3D artist for indie game studios, mostly in US.
