About Me!
How did I get here?
As you can read from the home page and the name of the website, my name is Mikolaj Rutyna. I was born in Poland and raised in the UK for most of my life. Over the years, I have developed an interest in the technical and the creative world. I have a deep passion for video games since childhood, which still resides within me to this day. Not only it fuels my dopamine, but I also gain new ideas and inspiration which is how I mainly ended up here.
So what kind of interests and skills have I gained?
- • Game development in Roblox (formerly) and Unity.
- • Front-end web development.
- • Traditional Art:
- ▸ Landscapes and portraits involving media such as pencils, soft pastels and watercolouring.
- • Digital Art:
- ▸ UI design - for websites and games.
- ▸ Pixel art - for games.
- ▸ GFX (Renders in Blender + Post-editing in paint.net)
- ▸ Graphics Design - mainly for thumbnails.
- • Video editing:
- ▸ Stylised editing in a music video fashion.
- ▸ Trailers
Roblox? Really?
Yup. When I learned to code for the first time with Python at school, I used my knowledge on Roblox which has a built in engine using Lua. Because of Roblox was how I was easily able to transition to Unity due to the same principles in both engines.
What am I doing now?
Currently studying in Goldsmiths University doing Creative Computing. In the second year now where I have to start thinking about what kind of projects I will do this and next year. I am looking to find an internship to gain a beneficial experience for my future and my projects.
