PROFILE / SEAN HINRICHSEN

Texture artist.
Game developer.

My background started in web and visual design before I moved into building games. Since then, I've worked on environments, 3D assets, gameplay and development tools. Texture and material art is where I want to focus professionally, while game development has given me a broader understanding of how the different pieces fit together.

Game Design & Game Development Masterclass
I'm currently taking IU's Game Design & Game Development Masterclass. For the coursework, I developed Turbo Pixel, a small arcade racer in Godot. It brought together visual planning, modular track building and gameplay systems in one project.

GAME DEVELOPMENT / GODOT
Independent game development
Since 2022, I have been developing games independently in Godot. I started with experiments in environments and FPS gameplay, then moved toward larger projects involving movement, weapons, assets, maps and tools. Working across these areas has helped me understand both the visual and the technical sides of making a game.
