HELLO, I'M DANIEL!

GAME TESTER AND LANGUAGE ENTHUSIAST

About Me

My name is Daniel, I live in Berlin, Germany. Playing games for 20 years, I decided to professionalize in the field of gaming QA: questioning and breaking things for the greater good.

I do have experience in the industry as a QA tester/manager and helped out several indie projects providing feedback testing their game or doing translation work. Down below you will find a small selection. – And there's more to come!

I'm always interested in people with promising projects I can contribute to as a tester or with a translation from English into German. Feel free to contact me!
