About Philip Trainer

I'm a self taught programmer who studied Game Design at Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD). I am primarily a programmer but I also understand the art and game design side when it comes to Game Development.I started out my career at SCAD with a Global Game Jam game called Pawanormal Activity, made in Unreal Engine 4. I was Lead Programmer on this project, where I directed fellow programmers, kept team leads up to date, and made decisions as to how the game would function. Along with that I was responsible with level design, NavMesh, and debugged errors in code. We won honorable mention in SCAD's competition, and went on to win awards in our local Guild Hall's startup conference.I started my career in VR in early 2018 with a game called Space Cowboys for the Vive Focus. Starting out as a school project, I completed the prototype in less than 6 days. I served as the sole programmer on the project, along with helping design the game as well. Since the headset was not released yet, there was little to no documentation or help online, so it was left up to me to figure out issues. We have continued the project and are hoping to have it on the Vive Port Store for when the Focus is released!
