Felicity Nop
GAME DESIGNER
ABOUT ME
Hey, I’m Felicity!
I'm a tertiary game design and development student with 4+ years experience in academic tutoring and customer service.
I am a passionate mix of creative and analytical - I love visual and UX design, as well as breaking down video games as I play them, always thinking how I could apply those aspects in other contexts.
My soft skills, including problem solving, leadership, and honest empathy, have been developed through my professional, student, and personal life over the last few years. My background in cognitive science gives me hard skills in experimental design & documentation, as well as cultivating my love for learning and research.
I love to stick my head out there to pursue my dreams of designing impactful games and media, and am always searching for new experiences.
This year, my capstone project is JellieShift, a lighthearted 2D puzzle-platformer available on Steam. I am the Creative Director, Lead Artist, Lead Level Design, and Co-Producer of this project.
I am interested in project management and game design/development experiences. Open to volunteering, internships, or placements in the games/games-adjacent industries.
Australian and French Dual Citizen. Native English speaker.
