Jake Asbell - Games Producer
Hello I'm Jake Asbell - Games Producer

I'm 23 years old and I got my Associates of Applied Science, Game Design degree from Austin Community College. While there I intensely studied the role of the producer in video game development. â€‹

​

As a competitive gamer, I excel in high stakes situations when complex problems need to be solved. While working as a level designer on Mindshift, I recognize how essential strong project management, clear team coordination, and proactive problem-solving are to a successful game. Throughout my game development journey, I've enjoyed building trusting relationships and aligning people with different visions and backgrounds toward a shared goal. I'm committed to applying both my competitive nature and collaborative strengths in a professional setting.

Responsibilities

As an Associate Producer, my focus is on supporting senior producers by handling day to day tasks, assisting with communication of different departments, and following up on deliverables. I will also prioritize taking meeting notes to keep everyone informed, as well as help keep project documentation up to date.

Leadership

What sets me apart from other leaders is I prioritize the individual relationships of all members on a team. I love bringing people together and finding ways to frame a project’s goals so they click with different team members. The goal is for everyone to be motivated and enjoy the work we're doing.

Creativity

Though I’m a producer at heart, I think like a designer. That perspective lets me align the creative vision to the production reality. I I was a level designer on Mindshift, a puzzle-platformer, where I created paper map concepts, built levels in Unity, and collaborated with the team on playtesting and iteration.
