Founder & Developer

Joshua Becerra

Bio:

From a young age, gaming has been a huge part of my life. When I wasn’t playing on my Xbox, I was out with my siblings making up any and all kinds of games for us to play. Looking back, it feels clear to me that the essence of game development has always been a part of who I am.
 

In 2023, I finally decided to turn this passion into something real. I figured there was no better time than the present to put myself out there and start learning what goes into making games. That decision eventually led me to create my own studio. I wanted a name that could bring all my projects together under one roof, and so Paranoia Studios was born, built around a simple goal: to create gaming experiences that resonate with others the same way they do with me. Whether it’s the sense of wonder you feel exploring the Halo ring in Halo CE or the tension and fear of Outlast, I want to deliver a wide range of emotions and leave a lasting, positive impression on anyone who plays my games.

I like to think of myself as a Swiss Army knife when it comes to development. I don’t stick to just one role; I enjoy every part of the process. Sound design, VFX, game design, art, programming, it’s all so much fun to me. If I had to pick a favorite, though, it would probably be whatever title sneaking in Easter eggs falls under lol.
 

What truly fuels my passion is the dream of sharing these crafted worlds with my family, friends, and anyone who happens to find them. There’s nothing more rewarding than looking at a world you've created and finding it truly beautiful and hearing others think the same. That sense of accomplishment and connection is something I cherish deeply.

I’m really excited for what’s ahead for both me and Paranoia Studios, and I can’t wait to keep growing and learning within this journey called game development.
