My name is Leonardo Amora Leite, born in 1976, and I’ve been working in the entertainment industry since 1995, in various areas. My career began with video editing and post-production for commercial videos on television, and then I pursued my graduation in Graphic Design. In January 2006, I moved to Porto Alegre and joined the first game company in Brazil, Southlogic. There, I had the opportunity to unleash my creativity in various roles, including illustrator, graphic designer, conceptual artist, and eventually as a game designer. Our main product, Deer Hunter from Atari, was a great success. While serving Ubisoft, our company developed the Wedding Designer, a game for Nintendo DS. I was a game designer and illustrator on this project, which included my first experience with pixel art. The game sold over 1 million copies, and as a result, Ubisoft acquired our studio.
In the fall of 2010, Ubisoft closed down its two game development studios in Brazil. At that time, I had the opportunity to leave my country, but I realized that success is not just about where you live, but also about your determination to achieve your goals. In January 2011, I founded amoraleite.com, a company focused on art, design ideas, and game development. Since then, I have won five national awards for game development and entrepreneurship, competing against around 250 registered groups (about 1000 people per contest) on average. As the Art Director of my company, I have created the art and illustrated many commercial games, children’s books, and board games for numerous companies, including major ones in Brazil. As an indie game developer, I have created around 30 games, all of them original IPs.
