Heavy focus on UI and UX to create satisfying responsive gameplay for the player.clean extendable code with function separated from visuals.

Implemented and iterated on:AI systems for the Horror Monster’s behaviours in response to the player and when patrolling,Debug tools for testing UI and systems programming for unannounced features.Tested and fixed bugs and used Perforce and Clickup for source control and task management.

responsible for creating rhythm mechanics in a pre-established codebase with one other programmer.

Working on an unannounced game in a pre established codebase for various platformsPrototyped and optimised puzzles and mechanics in 3D and 2D.Polished existing gameplay and UI systems.Used jira to keep track of tasks when bug fixing and cleaning up architecture.

Worked on a 3D psX horror demo, taking it from prototype to vertical slice through production in Unity as a generalist programmer and support designer working in a small remote team. Implemented silent hill inspired inventory system which uses object pooling for optimization and the subclass sandbox pattern for decoupled and neat code. Implemented a dialogue system and parser for ink filesUses a tag based event system. Gives and parses IDs to puzzle solutions and inventory objects to create an optimised save system. Built shaders such as a black light shader and worked with post processing.Programmed and Implemented cutscenes, animation blending and UI systemsBug tested and worked with QA to document, report and solve bugs. Tracked using jira and notion.I also worked on an unannounced deck builder as a game designer and generalist programmer, Uses scriptable objects and custom editors which read from CSV and the command pattern to write easily customisable code for card types that is game designer friendly.Follows object oriented programming techniques, implementing abstract classes and interfaces where appropriate. Separates functions from visuals using the component pattern.I use Notion and Jira for task tracking and writing documentation about tools and to plan complex code architecture.Self managed tasks and provided appropriate and sensible time estimates for deliverables

Using a brief and the given concept, developed characters, setting, quests and a storyline for a game in preproduction. Developed a primitive language system for characters alongside this work.

Commissioned to build a small 5-20 minute game for Indiepocalypse. Created a small rhythm game using finite state machines to create different behaviours for enemy AI. Designed using 2 colours and a heavy lean on interesting UX.

6 month contract:Worked on an unannounced game for console and PC beside the lead programmer. Focussed on building core gameplay mechanics and procedural generation. Generated a system to produce Perlin noise and used that data to spawn objects, with an added weight from player inputs.
