A little about me:

✦

"we make games with emotions, to understand emotions, and to share our emotions."

I'm Nick Hellstern, or Kritzy online, currently {AGE} years old and learning Game Design at Fontys Hogescholen ICT in Eindhoven. I'm a huge fan of competitive games ever since 2016 with games like Team Fortress 2, Rocket League, and Counter-Strike, but I got my start all the way back in 2006 with my trusty DS playing Mario Kart.

That love for video games got me curious on how to make things myself, and so I started learning Unity C# to make mods for existing video games (with varying degrees of quality), and eventually found myself studying at Fontys learning Game Design to take myself to a higher level.

Since then, I've made some fun and exciting projects for school and in my own time under the future name "Arcane Journey", with the aspiration to one day be able to teach others how to make their own games, and bring those people with me on my journey.

An adventure into the world of the Tarot

Journey of a Jester

Travel through the lands of Mondurniste, a remote island far away from the outside world, where characters based on the Major Arcana live out their lives.

But lately, unrest has been brewing in the shadows, and a mysterious force threatens to throw the island into chaos. It's up to you to help disperse this darkness on your way to learning more about who you truly are.

A mod that completely transforms the game

Balatro: Spells of the Arcane

Jimbo's scored himself a side gig as bartender at the Fool's Tavern, where brawls are regularly brewing!

Use Spells to defeat blinds, and face off aginst Opponent Blinds with a new Battle system!

This mod is my way of learning Lua, and to improve my pixel art.
