Simutronics Corp

Production Intern

June 2022 • St. Louis, MO

What I liked

I was immediately welcomed into the team as an equal and was given plenty of opportunities to enjoy what I was doing. I got to witness a lot of professional game design, primarily post-production efforts like play-testing. As Simutronics is an older indie company, I was able to network with several highly-experienced game designers. I also received feedback and assistance with my own game design projects and greatly valued what I learned regarding technical details and more principle ideas in game design.

What I wish was different

The workload was fairly light for me at Simutronics, and I feel like I would have had more to do if I joined already possessing certain skills, such as programming in C#.
