Hi! I've been lurking around for a while, so i thought it's time for a proper introduction. 8)

My name is Henrik and I'm from Sweden but i've been living in Tokyo since January this year. Currently I'm studying Japanese and just enjoying every day in this amazing country.

I'm an educated game programmer but recent years ive been as much designer as programmer. And the interest is not only game design but all kinds of design from architecture to industrial design. After 2 years of education i spent 2 years at my own(+ friends) independent gamedevelopment studio. Doing various kinds of outsourcing jobs and also working on our own IP. But it all eventually came to an end due lack of motivation to make games, among other reasons. At this time i was really tired of most of the games that was released and felt kind of hopeless towards games.

But since i've been away from game development and later moved to Tokyo i've felt inspired by the notgames movement and the potential of working with this unexplored part of the interactive medium. I'm really interested in the essence and uniqueness of this medium towards others.

My homepage just redirects to my twitter page right now until i have something to show. So right now im working on my first project using Flash/AS3 creating a foundation for the piece to eveolve from. Hopefully i have something to show pretty soon.
