Bio
I'm Liam Sorta and I love building stuff. Games, communities, weird experimental projects, all of it!
I’ve given tech talks to developers around the world while at Unity/Amazon, founded a game development community, ran/sold a startup with over 1m users, and currently run a fully remote game studio called Acureus that I founded with my good friend Marco Hoffmann.
My skills span across various development ecosystems/engines, project management/strategy, and marketing.
I’ve been fortunate enough to work with a bunch of incredibly talented people across tech/games to work on products reaching millions of people; to now apply this to our own game with over 3.5M players is super intense, and comes with much higher stakes. By cultivating a wonderful dev team and actively listening/engaging with our players, we’ve been able to consistently release high quality updates that players love.

Things I Do
🥑 Developer Relations
As a developer, educator, and community builder, Developer Relations holds a close space in my heart.
Whether 1:1/1:many, every developer you encounter poses an opportunity to learn and improve your product, potentially impacting millions of other people!
So cool.
❤️ Community Building
Peer learning is a powerful force multiplier for any skill; by creating communities, you indirectly create new relationships, improve products, and advance accessibility.
Having grown communities at a personal + corporate level, I have seen many of these benefits first-hand over the years.
