My name is Gregor! Currently I’m a programmer and small-project tech lead at NightinGames with a background in Informatics B.Sc. and Computer Game Studies M.A. in Bayreuth, Germany.
I have an interest in work that goes beyond functional or entertaining aspects (but does not lose them): my goal is to make art, to give something fundamental back to the world.
Video games are the medium I’ve chosen, and more specifically, technical narrative or quest design and implementation. Here, I feel the most resonance as both a creator and player. Moreover, I see a hard but doable challenge in learning how to access and improve at this craft.
Most recently, I’ve finished writing my master’s thesis, Quest Construction in REDengine 3 — a love letter to game engines, storytelling, and The Witcher 3. And as side projects, I’m working on A Raccoon’s Tale and my Witcher 3 quest mod!
When not pursuing dreams, I’m notoriously invested in several storyworlds, playing Overwatch 2 or Europe Universalis IV, reading books on philosophy, enjoying nature, or trying to use my guitarlele correctly (a challenge on its own).
