Hello. I'm

Sam

, I

love

making

games.


(and playing them)

I also take

photographs

and

make websites.

What do I do?

My name is Sam Bigos, and I have a passion for games. My interest runs a lot deeper than simply playing them, I want to get inside the very best gaming masterpieces, dissect them from the inside and find out how they work. I want to create the next Zelda, gameplay perfection with a storyline that leaves you emotionally drained while the credits roll. I want to make the next Counter Strike or the next Starcraft, and elevate E-Sports in the west to something more than just a niche market for enthusiasts.


I joined my first clan when I was 11, for Worms Armageddon. I created my own clan for a game called Soldat a few years later. I designed our own website, and organized clan matches. By 14 I was building my own computers.


I'm now studying Computer Games Technology at University Of Portsmouth, learning how to make the games I loved so much as a child. I also continued slowly advancing my knowledge of web development. In Christmas 2010, I created this portfolio, and recieved a Nikon D3100 DSLR camera to kickstart my interest in photography.


Like what you see? I'm always looking to try new things and work with amazing people. Send me an email or add me on Steam or Skype if you want to get in contact. I look forward to hearing from you!
