Just enjoying life, playing videogames and developing them.
Here I will share my work, my personal projects, and a bit of myself.
Here is a little taste of my work
Time to join Ludum Dare again! This time, we tried a new game engine. We choose Godot for this, and had a great experience working on it

After a brief hiatus of almost two years... Ludum Dare again! a game where the only controls available are Voice Commands. It uses the Speech Recognition Web API so you need Google Chrome to try it.

The latest entry by ConflictiveLabs for the LudumDare #32 and also my first Rhythm game. It's our homage to all those great 80's movies where the heroes hack incredible visual computer systems.
A new game by ConflictiveLabs for the LudumDare #27. It got a lot of good comments, and I really liked it. My first SHMUP, it has time control features, intant replay and a boss battle.
My first attempt at going solo at LudumDare #26. Its a game of skill and quick reflexes, and mixes a lot of 1-button control types

I developed this game as a member of Conflictive Labs for the Ludum Dare Jam Competition #24. We got first place on Mood and Innovation, and fifth place Overall
A few snapshots of my life
My name is Francisco Alcántara. I was born and raised in Santiago, Chile. Since I was a boy I was very interested about computers. My first approach was an Atari 800XL with BASIC programming language
I studied Civil Engineering with a Degree in Industry and Computer Science at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile During my career y learned various programming languages, such as C, C++, C#, Java, PHP, html & JS, PostgreSQL and MySQL, and several agile techniques for managing projects like SCRUM and eXtreme Programming.
I've always loved videogames. I owned an Atari, then a PS one, a PS2, and currently own a PS3, a Xbox 360, a Wii and a 3DS; and that love drove me to study Computer Science, but never thought possible the idea of to be working developing videogames, until one day I met Alejandro Woywood, a teacher at my University and founder of AmnesiaGames one of the first Game Developer Studios in Chile. I did my internship there, and now, after 5 years, I'm a full time Project Engineer, managing and developing several videogames developments. Dreams do come true :)
Currently, I split my time between my work, videogaming, some personal projects, and my passion for music. I'm always looking for the next challenge and I hope to be able to share some interesting projects with all of you
