About Me
Hi, I’m Jóhan Gaardbo — a 30-year-old developer based in Denmark, also known as GaardboDev. I’m passionate about creating small-scale games and creative projects in my spare time. This website is my space to share those projects and document what I’ve learned along the way.
I enjoy exploring different areas of development — from game design and coding to creating visuals, sound, and music. I’m passionate about learning new tools and experimenting with technologies that spark creativity and problem solving.
