Alex Way Game Design Portfolio

Hello, World! It’s Alex.

I am a Business Administration student at the University of Southern California, graduating with my bachelors in May 2026. This past year, I began taking an interest in game design after spending most of college focusing on video game marketing and product management.

In my free time, I enjoy having my Ganondorf humbled in Smash Ultimate and learning random facts about indie games that I’ll probably never play.

You can learn more about my creative work below. If you’d like to get in touch, feel free to reach out!
