JOHN VO

Hello!

I am a Game Designer from Vietnam.

​

I didn't have access to a computer nor any internet connection so my entire gaming experience came from net cafes. I wasn't allowed to play any video games but sometimes I would sneak out with my cousins. 

​

I would play the most random games I could click on since I did not speak English.

 

My love for gaming started when my cousin showed me this little Counter-Strike knock off called Crossfire when I was 10.

It was a popular FPS game in South East Asia, it's just Counter-Strike 1.6 with a new coat of paint, I was sucked into the world of shooters and would play this game hours on end. This game sparked my love for competitive games and first-person shooters in general.

​

After that. I was introduced to the PlayStation 2 and Minecraft. These were the most influential moments to ever exist in my core memories because it showed me that video games don't have to be competitive, it can be an interactive story, it can be an educational tool, it can become anything a great mind could think of. There is no limit.

​

I became a Game Designer because I want to design games through my experience with gaming and my love for the medium.

​

My all time favorite games are Titanfall 2 and Shadow of the Colossus.

​

I also have a soft spot for giant mechs and anime.

​

In my free time, I would build mecha model kits and create graphics. If you would like to see them Click Here.
