I Have Left Gameloft Today

Today was my last working day as Gameloft Argentina’s Programmer Lead.

I decided to pursue my own projects for a while, and gave myself a new path to walk.

Gameloft Buenos Aires was opened 3 years ago, and at that time we were 6 guys crammed into a tiny office. Now the studio boasts more than 300 people. Being the lead of programmers of such a large studio was a scary task. But every moment I spent there is always going to be a fond memory to me. And I can’t believe how much I grew during these years, both professionally and personally.

Contrary to what usually happens, I’m not leaving the company resentful or sick. Gameloft treated me in a special way and I was really happy doing my job. But happiness is about the search for a better happiness, and that’s why I made this choice.

I start this new stage feeling full of love. Then I know it’s going to be good. Expect plenty of stuff from Ludomancy.

I’m going indie for some time.

Wow! unexpected news!

Well, congrats for you. I wanna know about your new projects.

By the way, i have never tried your peculiar and experimental RPG.

One of the best programmers in Gameloft and the godfather of IGP I am sorry to see him going.
Soon I will leave Gameloft too hoping to find at least half of the happiness Daniel found.

All the best wishes from Gameloft Romania.

Dear Paul, you are looking for the material happiness but if you leave please take Axinov with you as well.

LONG LEAVE THE COMMUNISTS !!!

Happy man

Congratulations Daniel! I’m sure you’ll be great with your own projects, and you’ll enjoy your new freedom a lot. Have a nice time!

we will miss you.. really.
Ya te lo dije personalmente, pero veo esta como otra oportunidad para agradecerte por todo. Sos un tipo especial y tu forma de recibir mi saludo y el de todos ayer es otra demostracion de ello.

Un Jedi, una gran cabeza se dividio en decenas.. espero que todos estemos a la altura de las circunstancias, a tu altura.

Let us know of the progress of your projects! .. and also let me know how can I resolve the SoS64!! ja!

Congrats for your freedom again!

y que la suavidad te acompañe!!

Sabía que te ibas de Gameloft dentro de poco, pero no que el viernes era tu último día. Es una lástima porque me habría gustado mucho ir a saludarte..

Te deseo lo mejor y ojalá se vengan muchos juegos tuyos… yo los voy a estar esperando!

Aprendí muchas cosas de vos estando en Gameloft y realmente te agradezco por eso

Mucha suerte y que disfrutes lo que se viene!!

(No era mi idea que apareciera ese smiley feo)

Good luck my friend! Looking forward to your indie games, and more surprises at CODEAR

Concuerdo totalmente con YÑZ

“Let us know of the progress of your projects! .. and also let me know how can I resolve the SoS64!! ja!”

Bien, para excederme en originalidad como siempre, voy a decir que, tambien espero ver con que cosa rara salis a atacar.

PD: Un jedi???? no sera poco?

Best of luck to you!

Mucha suerte en tu nuevo proyecto, despues de tus charlas en la eva siempre me quedé intrigado de que podrias hacer con más tiempo.

Espero que tengas exito.

Heartfelt thanks to all of you…

After all, I’ll probably be feeding on encourage alone for a while!

Well! Great news… Joining, perhaps, a local GREEN company?

Best of luck to you Daniel! It’s a brave thing to do. I can’t wait to see what you have in store for the next IGF

[...] game was to be part of the CODEAR: Banner Games compo, but quitting and stuff kept me from finishing it on time. It’s a Science Fiction collage poorly glued together. [...]
