Profile: https://flows.cv/williamlyons

I'm a writer, gameplay programmer, and game designer. In 2022, I graduated Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, majoring in Games and Simulation Arts and Sciences with a concentration in Writing.

Creating art is my passion, whether that's building video games as a designer or engineer, writing comics, or creating interactive narratives that push the boundaries of their medium.
