Hello!

 

My name is Tom Katzman. I’m a game designer, writer, media junky, and amateur programmer. I’m deeply passionate about all types of stories, from games to novels, movies to comics, so I tend to know way too much about the things I like. For example; I memorized all the names of the first 151 Pokemon before I memorized the names of my aunts and uncles. Yeah, that bad.

My strongest skill is my tendency to overthink. Hey, I didn't say it's my most beneficial, it's just my strongest. Because I overthink, I can analyze and critique games and stories and see what works and what can be better. Of course, overthinking a double-edged sword. If I try to present myself as a professional, I run the risk of coming off as plastic, or, god forbid, the worst thing a game designer can be: boring. On the other hand, if I write how I truly feel, I will come off as an absolute crazy person. Overall, my main point is that I'm very good please hire me.
