My name is Melinda and I am currently a game designer and project manager assistant @ Filimundus.

There are two very clear reasons for why I wanted to start working with game development. The first reason came to me when I worked as a store manager at GameStop. Young girls came in with their parents looking for games to play, and parents wanted their kids to play - but not online.

They searched for games like Horizon Zero Dawn and Tomb Raider with strong female lead characters, thrilling adventures and engaging narrative. Suddenly, the filled up shelves in the store felt like a joke.

The second reason for me to pursue a carrier in games are my nephew and niece. My nephew showed interest in gaming very early on but I was surprised with how few quality games there were out there for children. I remember when I was a kid and got those awesome games in the cereal box. Or could pick a game on the shelf at a store and I just knew that it was going to be hours of fun.

There are a few fire souls out there that is still working towards unforgettable experiences for the younger ones, and I am honored working closely with them.

That's why I am here! I want to get out there to make games for those that I feel are a bit forgotten about in the industry.
