Pedro Gaia

Game Developer

Hey, what's up?

I'm Pedro Gaia, and I'm passionate about helping develop games where players have an awesome time, be it in shared fun, or solo adventures. I truly enjoy being part of a team that evolves and grows together, especially when I'm able to learn from other people (and maybe even share a couple tricks I've learned myself!). Let's team up and work on something unforgettable!
