games I've worked on
NervBox
A full-physics VR simulation that lets you explore worlds and create expereiences with your friends. Has many advanced never-before-seen methods of syncing fully articulated characters, with very little limits to fidelity. Runs on Quest 2 and PCVR. I made this header!
Kill the King
A physics based multiplayer co-op assasination game. Part of my work at Quantum Lion Labs. Created various content.
Immersion Sector
A unreleased physics based multiplayer game where I created a new type of multiplayer VR interactions. Various body physics and IK work was also done to create an accurate representation of a human body in VR. Specialized Netcode was written in order to solve the shared object interaction problem that comes with multiplayer VR.
MEAR
A game made in 72 hours for Amber Waves of Games. Players must navigate horrid creatures using their voice as power for a flashlight. Created powerups and shout mechanic.
Project Merv
My first dive into the Unity Game Engine, where I learned how to work with its physics engine. Created everything.
IM 110 Final Project - Platformer - Of Lights and Bulbs
Created for IM110, the main focus was experimenting with 2D lighting. Was playtested through peer feedback and iterated to improve such. Contains a procedurally animated player, physics-based movement, proper difficulty scaling, camera feedback, dynamic environments, multiple levels with new mechanics, proper sound and music implementation, and various usability mechanics that make the game enjoyable.
IM 160 Final Project - Level Design Puzzler - .Corporeal
Created for IM160, this project was to learn about level-design and creating a responsive two player co-op game. This game was also playtested throughout development as well as saw through several pitch and approval phases. The game features local split screen, multiple scene loading, physics-based interaction and movement via forces and raycasts, alongside other puzzle-based mechanics implemented via complex triggers and C# events. GitHub was used for collaborative version control.
IM 160 Course Work - C# learning assignments.
The first half of the IM 160 class included various C# learning practices, such as arrays, instantiation, string manipulation, loops, coroutines, Object-Oriented programming, constructors/destructors, inheritance, tilemapping, and scriptable objects. Also some shader experiments.
IM 289 Final Project - Backroads.
Backroads is an experimental first person driving psychological thriller, where players must navigate desert back roads while transporting a deadly virus. This game was ambitious for the course for it being the sole 3D game of its type as well as being more narritive focused compared to strictly gameplay progression. Various artwork was done to try and mimic what driving on empty roads was like. Tools were authored for other members to easily add events, with inheritance being used to make creating code-driven events easier. Path finding was used for certain events to ensure that everything was framed properly, further supporting the narrative. All UIs and 3D models were built to scale on a variety of displays, while still having good feedback to the player regarding what was currently happening.
