I am Vicente Mediano, aka Zorkats in the internet, a Software engineer and Computer Science student specializing in game technology, native tooling, reverse engineering, and open source.
I build software inside systems I do not control: existing engines, binary formats, rendering APIs, input runtimes, and active upstream codebases. Games are my application domain, However, I am a systems engineer.
About me, I love videogames (especially JRPGs!) and reading (especially Manga's!), and I have an adorable cat named Adol.
| Project | Engineering focus |
