Alex Hu
A showcase of crafted encounters, tested reflexes, and pixel-perfect ideas.
Bosses? Designed. Levels? Tuned. Systems? Broken… then rebuilt better.
I’m Xuan also can call me Alex, a game designer with a love for hard questions and harder fights.
Welcome to where the fun begins — and balance is always one patch away.

Thanks for exploring CTRL+CREATE — a space where every boss fight tells a story, and every mechanic has a purpose.
This site is just a snapshot of my journey as a designer — there's more to build, more to break, and much more to play.
If you’re into crafted combat, clever level design, or experimental systems, let’s connect.
Until then, keep dodging, keep dreaming — and never stop pressing start.
