What I do

Game Design

Since I was a kid I dreamt about making games and after finishing my Masters degree in Games from IT University of Copenhagen, I'm one step closer to realising that dream! My interests lies in Game Design, Level Design, and World Building.

QA and UR

I have experience in setting up a test suite, and in QA in general, from the DADIU programme which I attended as my third semester. Here I was QA and UR manager where I had to design all QA processes and tools. I’ve also worked with QA at my former job at Copenhagen Gamelab. I believe that a tight collaboration between the QA and the rest of the team is very important

Web Development

I also have a PBA in web development and have worked as a junior developer at Copenhagen Gamelab. I am proficient in HTML, CSS/SCSS, Javascript, PHP, Node, React, Angular, MySQL and more.

About me

My name is Niklas Pelle and I’m 28 years old. I have a background in web development and multimedia design and have recently completed my MSc degree in Games (design track) from IT-university of Copenhagen. My main interests are game and level design which was my focus in the Games programme. Furthermore, I also look for QA and UR management positions which I gained an interest in with the DADIU programme which attended in my 3. Semester of Games.
