Author Portrait - Kathrin Janowski

  Hello! I'm Kathrin Janowski, a computer scientist who has been dreaming of creating her own video game since her teenage years. I would even say that this was a major reason for getting into this line of work - I wanted to understand what makes video game characters tick.   The world of the Kaleidoscope System grew up with me. It was always in the back of my mind, even when university life got stressful and I stopped doing art for years. Around 2016 I decided to get back into art and get serious about this project.   Then in January 2023, the Kingslayer Pack happened and stole the spotlight from provided an excellent opportunity to practice writing for the Kaleidoscope project. Consequently, my secondary world Miragia evolved into a story setting in its own right.
         

A nerd with a love for otherworldly creatures that I enjoy bringing to life through coding and computer graphics.

Interests & Hobbies

Various forms of traditional and digital art, programming, and music. I'm also a LARPer and spent several years training with a longsword.

Favorite Movies

I prefer stories that span over several movies. Like the Back to the Future trilogy, both Kingsman Movies, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, or the Star Wars Saga.

Favorite TV Series

Too many amazing series out there - but I especially love those that include science fiction, small groups against powerful opponents, or both. Some examples are Doctor Who, Knight Rider, Burn Notice, Person of Interest, or the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Favorite Writers

Frank Schätzing and Terry Pratchett.

Favorite Games

Primarily interactive stories set in fantastic worlds, such as the Mass Effect trilogy, the Myst series, or King's Quest VI.
