About the Reviewers

Mateusz Mysliwiec was born 1993 in Tarnow, Poland, graduating from high school in 2012. He currently lives in England. During his last year of high school, he decided that he would like to study Software Engineering or a different subject connected with math, programming, and engineering. He is also an independent game developer. In his free time, he develops professional mobile games focusing especially on the Android platform. His goal is to permanently impact the global mobile gaming industry in the near future. He is active in a variety of projects, including open source. His passions away from game development are sports and recreation such as football, skydiving, and jogging. His family and friends are the important aspects of his life.

Sergio Viudes is a 30 years old software developer from Elche (Spain). He works developing commercial web apps, and develops video games for Android in his free time.

He likes to play video games since childhood. He started playing with his brother's Spectrum when he was 5 years old. When he bought his first PC (well, his parents did), he was 14 years old, and started learning computer programming, computer drawing, and music composing (using the famous "FastTracker 2"). When he finished high school, he studied Computer Science at the University of Alicante.

His interest in mobile devices started with his first smart phone, ten years ago (2002), when he bought the first Symbian device from Nokia, the Nokia 7650. He really liked the idea that he could develop software that could run everywhere. So, along with his studies and his job, Sergio started creating simple mobile apps for his phone. About two years ago he decided to create his first video game for mobile devices. He really enjoys developing for mobile devices, he likes to compose music, he likes to draw, and, of course, he likes to play video games. So he decided to put all his hobbies together and develop his first video game for his favorite mobile platform—Android.

So far Sergio has released 3 games and he continues developing apps and games for Android as a hobby. He wishes that someday it will be his job, not just a hobby.

Jafar Abdulrasoul—a graduate from the Kuwait University—is a Computer Engineer and an Android game enthusiast who wrote a couple of excellent tutorials on his blog about creating games using AndEngine. He is known online by the name Jimmar.
