👾 Featured Projects
Dreamlands
September 2023 – September 2025
Role: Gameplay Programmer
- Coded all single-player systems
- Integrated multiplayer into the existing single-player framework
- Contributed to game design decisions and created certain sound effects
Notes: The game was originally built in Phaser by another programmer but development was slow. I was brought on to accelerate progress, and we advanced so quickly that the scope expanded to include tactical combat and full multiplayer. I made a lot of cool things in this game, but my favourite is still the ship landing/taking off!
Decaton(Part-Time Project)
May 2021 – Present
Role: Systems Programmer
- Coding single-player systems on a part-time basis (approx. 4 hrs/week)
- Implemented unique battle mechanics such as actor "spawn-in" sequences
Notes: Focused primarily on coding, with occasional contributions to experimental gameplay ideas.
