Hey there! This is my game designer portfolio. Take your time browsing through to get a glimpse of my Projects.

I like making fun games work and working games til fun.

Live Wire

Genre: 3D platformer

Embark on an electrifying adventure to deliver a food package. In this dynamic 3D platformer you harness the power of electricity to navigate through the city.

This was a 5 person group project where I refined the wire travel system, made the electricity economy system for the attacks and took part into tweaking the game play for it to feel as smooth as possible and Fun.

Swordless

Genre: First Person Shooter

A shooter where you don’t shoot. Making sure the core mechanic of shield reflection was working properly and well polished was crucial for making the core gameplay loop feel good.

This was a 5 person group project in which I developed the role of the Product Owner. Assisting my team while also making sure the vision of the game was executed.

Oinky Sploinky

Genre: Puzzle Platformer.

This is a cute and family friendly game in which my main game design focus was tricking the player into believing they were doing things correctly.

The games instructions are carefully worded to trick you into getting to the bad ending. No Oinkys need to die.
