Alex Circo (as cheer-co), a game UI artist working mainly in vectors, but a video game lover foremost.
I also do some illustration aside, some photo manipulation (Photoshop), some animation/motion (After Effects). Know some HTML/CSS and
C#, working on some casual games in Unity in my spare time.
Why do i love games?
A game for me is like a magic book that opens itself revealing its own content, letting me not only observe through the 4th glass wall but
my hands to reach inside and interact with the world. Imagine changing a book's page story by physically manipulating words on a page slightly affecting the next page too. This is UI for me - the holes in the wall where you put your hands through. Those little digital worlds helped me through some tough days; created memories with my friends and loved ones.
I get inspired from other games, music, movies, general visual arts, random stuff with no relation that plays a "click" sound FX in my head. Been doing UI for more than 5 years, enough to develop some symmetry OCD which helps a great deal with my attention to details and weirding people out.
A rain and coffee lover. Also love late night driving, photography, abandoned places and ruins, drawing, DIY projects, shitbox cars, drones, cats, ancient egypt, pirates, breezy summer nights, camping/campfires, backyard grills and beer.
