About Sigmund Chianasta

Hello! I'm Sigmund, a student at the National University of Singapore studying Computer Graphics and Games. Other than coding, my daily activities include drawing and playing RPGs.

​

As children, I and my friends' desire to play more video games in school lead to us creating our own Tabletop RPG system. The game ended up being similar to the more widely-known Dungeons & Dragons, though not balanced in any way possible. Even so, we had lots of fun gathering together after class and rolling dice to fight the day's evil villain.

​

The game had indirectly led me to the career of game development. At one point I was considering to pursue an engineering career, but I ultimately ended up pursuing a Computer Science degree. Conveniently, NUS provides the opportunity to learn Computer Graphics and Games in addition to its regular curriculum.

​

Throughout high school, I messed around with GameMaker and created my first "game"- a very stripped-down turn-based RPG akin to Final Fantasy. Now, I'm using Unity and Unreal Engine 4 to work with my groupmates for my class projects, and some small personal projects.

​

I still dream to take part in the perfect game, one that I would play for hours on end.
