I started working here during my studies at the Utrecht University and returned right after my graduation. During my time at Abbey Games we produced two games: Reus and Renowned Explorers: International Society. I worked there as a gameplay programmer, game designer and scrum master, sometimes all at the same time.

After completing my courses at the Utrecht University I did some research; first an experimentation project on the subject of map navigation, where I compared classic map navigation on mobile devices with map navigation using the shoebox effect. The latter is a technique that changes the camera perspective of an application relative to the user's viewpoint. This makes it appear as if the user is looking through a hole in a box.I made an application on an android device where users had to follow a line from beginning to end using classic map navigation (I.e. screen-panning) and a combination of screen-panning and the shoebox effect. The application logged the results which I could use to make a comparison.My second research, my master thesis, was on in the field of computer animation. I studied the effects when changing limb-length during an animation, where I eventually focused on the legs. This resulted in a system capable of following a given path on a 2D plane in a 3D environment using a motion graph as input while the legs of the character change. Several techniques were implemented in order to make the animation go smoothly and correctly.

Part time job alongside my studies where I did web application development. I mainly worked on a custom CMS for one of our customers.
