Hi there! I’m Alonso, a game developer from Chile. I’m one of the co-founders of Smarto Club where in 2021 we released Teacup, a wholesome narrative adventure game about a tea loving frog. We’re currently developing our next game Bubblegum Galaxy, a cute building strategy game about rebuilding the galaxy tile by tile

One the achievements I’m most proud of is that in 2020, I was selected as a recipient for the International Game Developer’s Association Scholars program.

I’m passionate about helping others in their game development journey. I was an adjunct professor at the Game Design and Development program at Universidad SEK, and while doing my undergrad I participated actively in our game development club. As part of the club, I organized multiple activities like workshops, talks and game jams, including the biggest Global Game Jam site in the country.

In my spare time, I enjoy tinkering with 3D printing and electronics besides reading perhaps too many self-improvement books. Some of my favorite gaming experiences have been the touching interdependent relation of The Last Guardian, the intense dual-screen action of The World Ends With You, the cozy location and characters of A Short Hike, and the inviting world of Final Fantasy XIV.

The best way to reach me is via the site formerly known as Twitter. I’m horrible at checking my DMs though, so tweet at me directly if I don’t get back to you.
