ABOUT ME
Hello, I'm Sai Sidhvi Gandikota, hailing from India, the land of diversity and rich mythologies. Since my childhood, I have been captivated by stories and narratives passed down through generations by my grandmothers and mother. This fascination led me to explore various forms of media, including movies, video games, novels, and TV series.
​
In 2020, I completed my bachelor's degree in Animation from the esteemed "Aditya School of Computer Science" with a commendable CCGPA of 9.18. Following that, I had the opportunity to work as a Junior Game Tester at Ubisoft India, Pune, contributing to the development of Mario+Rabbids: Sparks of Hope.
As an avid gamer, I continually expand my knowledge by exploring diverse genres. However, my true passion lies in Action-Adventure and RPG games. I'm particularly drawn to narrative-focused experiences, as I believe video games possess unparalleled potential to entertain and immerse individuals while delivering compelling stories. Influenced by industry veterans like Hideo Kojima (MGS franchise, Death Stranding), Cory Barlog (God of War Series, Tomb Raider 2013), and Dan Houser (GTA Series, Red Dead Redemption Series), I find inspiration in their groundbreaking work.
​​
Among my favorite games are Guerrilla Games' Horizon Series (2018-), CD Projekt Red's The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (2015-2016), Kojima Productions' Death Stranding (2019), Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Series (2008-), and Rockstar Games' Red Dead Redemption Series (2010-). My ultimate aspiration is to share my own stories with the world one day, leveraging the power of video games.
