Jamison Parks
Hello there! My name is Jamison Parks, and I am a Video Game Designer, currently studying at Bradley University. I was named Bradley's 2023 "Freshman Game Designer of the Year" after my game Train Trials was a big hit at Bradley's game expo!
I have an Associate of Arts Degree from when I took college and high school classes concurrently. I am currently on track to graduate a year early in 2025 with a Bachelor of Arts in Game Design. My plan is to return the next year to earn my Masters in Game Design at Bradley.
I came to Bradley in fall of 2022, and my class "Intro to Game Development" tasked each student with making a 2D sidescroller. My game "Taxing Train Trials" was well-received to the point that I was allowed to continue improving it with a team of Freshmen for Bradley's FUSE event. I got several artists, programmers, game designers, and a composer, and together we made "Train Trials" for FUSE 2023!
In my second year, I worked on the game "Jampocalypse" for the class "Game Production I", which is a rhythm game. I also was made the team lead for a FUSE project, where we came up with the game "Craftway Racers"! During my second semester of the year, I took two game design classes at once. Due to this, I am made eight prototypes during that semester. This is alongside working on "Craftway Racers" as a producer.
Currently, I am working on my Senior Capstone, and another game, "Come Back to It".
