Albert Truong - The Game Band | LinkedIn (original) (raw)

Luke Quattrocchi “I worked with Albert at Rumble for just about 10 years, and it was fantastic the entire time. Albert started when I was a lower level designer, but the impact he had on our art quality was immediately apparent. For Kingsroad, the quality of our item sets, enemies, and general direction increased substantially. For Alliance: Heroes of the Spire, Monsterball, and Towers and Titans, his concepts and overview drove our art style and direction, and whether that be the stylized fantasy of Alliance, the cartoonish whimsy of Monsterball, or the grim realism of Towers and Titans, Albert’s impact and influence made sure that the art was of the highest caliber. As I rose the ranks of our design team, Albert became our Art Director, and that quality and influence continued. Albert never gotgetting too attached to a piece of art that we didn’t feel like was working, he always sought to collaborate on the visual design for the game by seeking feedback and opinions from other disciplines, and he constantly pushed the envelope in what our team was capable of. In total, Albert and I worked together on around 200 completely unique heroes across multiple titles, as well as countless enemies, bosses, and items in between, and I am extremely thankful that he was there to ensure the art quality of our games was consistently top notch, but also constantly looking for ways to improve. I would highly recommend Albert for an Art Director position, and I sincerely hope that I get the opportunity to work with him again.”
