Olifiers's last position in Brazil was as Head of Games at Globo TV. There he developed around 30 web-based games, some of them multiplayer, such as Thorvarium 1 and 2. He developed one massive multiplayer online role-playing game called Herois e vampiros (Heroes and Vampires). He was also the lead designer in the production of the games Conquista de Titã, and My Big Brother.
Interestingly, Olifiers is better known not as a game designer but as a gaming journalist. He conducted GamesMania Brazil, the South American arm of the worldwide GamesMania online magazine. As a chief-editor, he led the gaming portal in the early 90s.
After GamesMania Olifiers founded LagZero, a multiplayer-oriented gaming portal that later became the wider FinalBoss.com, actually the largest hardcore gaming portal in Latin America. FinalBoss.com is also a startup game development company.
