Welcome!
My name is Mick Gerritsen. I am 21 years old and I am living in The Netherlands. I am a gameplay programmer who excels at prototyping, level design and game mechanic programming.
I strive for making games with cohesive elements which are designed from a vision. I also want my games to make players feel like all their choices make a big impact during their play experience.

Innards!
Last 20 weeks I have worked on "Innards!". I have worked mostly on programming all the mechanics for the game.
Innards is a strategy game with tower defense mechanics where the player controls a nanobot inside a thematic version of the human body which can place immune cells to defend against germs.

Rijksmuseum Familiespel
"Rijksmuseum Familiespel" is a game I made during a group project in commision for Rijksmuseum. I prototyped and programmed during this project.
Rijksmuseum asked for a family friendly game that could be played on a tablet and inside the museum. So we made a game that makes use of AR (Augmented Reality) and it let's players find objects inside of paintings for specific persons during the story scenario.

Reggie
During my internship at Degoma I worked on "Reggie, his cousing, two scientists and most likely the end of the world" and I mostly worked on programming systems and level design.
"Reggie" is a 2D platformer with a hand animated artstyle that focuses around a gravity switch mechanic. The game will be packed with a lot of story and cutscenes.

Sh!t Happens
"Sh!t Happens" is a game I made with a team during the Global Game Jam of 2019 at HKU. The theme for the game jam was: what home means to you.
It got rewarded with the Best Game Award and the Audience Award.
