Albéric POULIGNIER
Game Designer
Welcome !
I'm Albéric, a Game Designer who's been working at Spiders from 2023 to this day.
We released GreedFall : The Dying World (a prequel to GreedFall) in march of 2026 and are currently working on an unannounced project.
Design wise I tend to focus on subtractive design since it fits more my personality, and have a strong interest in systems and AI behaviours.
I love scripting, either text based or nodal based. I had the chance to work on the Silk engine (Spiders in house engine) during the last 3 years, increasing my adaptability and technical knowledge.
