Game Developer / Full Stack Developer

Based in São Paulo, Brazil

Bachelor in Information Systems by Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri (UFVJM) with sandwich period at University of Tsukuba, Japan.

Hi! My name is Lucas Izumi, a game developer with a passion for challenges! My utmost goal is to create different experiences, to deliver games that can cause players to feel something and make their lives better. I've been making games since 2014 and started developing them with a group of friends, creating several others by myself later on.

I'm an eager learner of Artificial Intelligence and its application on games. I had the opportunity to join an AI research lab at University of Tsukuba during my student exchange program in Japan, where I researched learning algorithms for AI agents in digital games. I've published a paper about it and you can find it here.

I keep a blog where I write my devlogs and postmortem, you can access it here.

Oi! Meu nome é Lucas Izumi, um desenvolvedor de jogos com paixão por desafios! Meu maior objetivo é criar experiências diferentes, oferecer jogos que possam fazer com que os jogadores sintam algo e melhorem suas vidas. Eu tenho feito jogos desde 2014 e comecei a desenvolvê-los com um grupo de amigos, criando vários outros por conta própria mais tarde.

Eu sou um ávido estudante de Inteligência Artificial e sua aplicação em jogos. Tive a oportunidade de participar de um laboratório de pesquisa de IA na University of Tsukuba durante meu programa de intercâmbio no Japão, onde eu pesquisei algoritmos de aprendizado para agentes de IA em jogos digitais. Eu publiquei um artigo baseado nesta pesquisa e você pode acessá-lo clicando aqui.

Eu mantenho um blog onde escrevo meu devlogs e postmortem, você pode acessá-lo aqui.
