Biography edit · view history
An award-nominated writer raised inside Spanish developer Pendulo Studios, where he participated as a writer in the Runaway and Hollywood Monsters sagas and the award-winning Yesterday (aka New York Crimes). He was nominated twice for “Excellency in Storytelling” at the IMGA 2013 Awards, eventually won by fabulous The Walking Dead by Telltale. He's also participated in other departments, such as bus dev, PR, production, game design and project management.
As an English to Spanish localizer, he prefers to work on his own or with other freelance linguists than with big agencies. He's co-founder of Word Players, a small network of passionate and experienced indie game localizers around the globe.
He's a member of the video game focused cultural asociation ArsGames ("Ars" from Latin, so no pun intended) which concentrates on breaking the boundaries between games and art, philosophy, pedagogy, politics and other human manifestations.
