About Me

Hi and thanks for checking out my portfolio, my name is Michiel Dewachtere. I'm a game development student in my final year from Belgium. I've been programming, primarily in C++ and C#, since 2021. My interest lies primarily in the more low-level stuff, and trying out new stuff programming related, like building this website. Currently, I am mostly interested in graphics programming and I would also love to learn more about low-level programming, subjects like compilers and assembly seem very interesting to me.

Skills Experience Education

I am proficient in C++ and C# and have strong experience working with game engines like Unity and Unreal Engine 5. My knowledge extends to frameworks such as SDL2 and Vulkan, with basic experience in GLSL and CMake. I am also familiar with tools like RenderDoc and have worked with various IDEs throughout my career.
In addition to technical expertise, I excel in team collaboration, problem-solving, and adaptability, and I have experience communicating complex ideas effectively to diverse teams.

I will be completing an internship at XR-Labs Belgium from February to June 2025, working as a programmer on a simulation project for the Belgian Defence Forces.
Due to a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), I cannot provide further details about this internship.

I am currently in my final year pursuing a bachelor's degree in Game Development at Digital Arts and Entertainment, a program offered by Howest University of Applied Sciences in West Flanders.
