Notably, Mr. Tanweer is currently developing a roleplay video game inspired by historical East Asia, conducting thorough research in ancient Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Iraq, India, and other nations to ensure authenticity and accuracy to the period on display.

Born in Pakistan, Mr. Tanweer began his career as a lecturer at the University of Lahore between 2002 and 2003.

To support his professional ambitions, Mr. Tanweer pursued an education at the National University of Computer and Emerging Sciences, from which he earned a Bachelor of Science in computer science.

He has attributed his success to the unwavering support of his loving family. Among the most memorable moments of his career, he is incredibly proud to create a physically-based state-of-the-art “Scoop Excavator” simulation in Pakistan, which was nominated for a number of accolades.

Looking toward the future, Mr. Tanweer hopes to introduce his historical roleplay game to the market in the next several years.
