Hi there, I'm Nikunj Kareliya! 👋

I'm game developer with decade of experience crafting amazing games! I’ve always believed that the best games aren’t just played - they’re felt. As a kid, I was captivated by how games could transport me, tell stories without words, and spark real emotion. That early wonder turned into a passion to create those kinds of experiences for others. Over the past 10+ years as a Unity developer, I’ve had the privilege of bringing ideas to life - writing gameplay systems, shaping player journeys, and blending design with engineering to craft moments that matter.

​​

Great games, to me, are born from shared vision and built through collaboration. I’ve worked across the full development cycle, from scrappy prototypes to polished releases, wearing both the coder’s hat and the designer’s lens. I love sitting at the intersection of logic and creativity - translating bold ideas into engaging, intuitive experiences. Whether it’s designing a progression system, refining a core loop, or solving for retention, I care deeply about how players feel at every step. I’m always excited to partner with passionate teams, bounce ideas around, and build something greater than the sum of its parts. If that sounds like you too, let’s make something unforgettable - together.

Feel free to reach out for a chat, and thanks for stopping by! 💕
