I design front end and back end systems and create the structure of the entire game, carefully planning ahead to avoid many issues later. I also train and fix errors of the other programmers in my team. We're still a small company but that makes it easier to manage and create conventions and systems for us to follow.

Our mobile game company, where I designed everything. The code, gameplay, sprites, sfx, etc. The games made where short and quick which really helped me learn proper structure and how to setup a project, making it easier to scale up for bigger games that we work on in Surreality Games.

Mobile game I worked on for mobile devices. In the game the player moves a ball down roads and avoids tiles that kill. They collect coins to unlock skins and as they go further down the road the game gets faster and more and more obstacles are added to complicate it. If the player dies they respawn back to the beginning, unless they watch an ad to continue. Very addictive, fun and simple. It was originally built in Unity but is currently being rebuilt in UE4 because of glitches in Unity's physics and lighting engines that don't occur in UE4. Until then, it has been removed from Google Playstore.

Inspired by a mathematical puzzle, this game has several circles, nodes, connected by lines with a certain number, positive or negative. When the player taps on a node, it sends one dollar to each node connected to it. So if it had 4 dollars and connected to 3 nodes, each node would get 3 more dollars, and the one the player tapped on would go down to 1. The goal of the game is make sure no nodes are in debt. As the game progress, special nodes are added, such as ones that can't be tapped, or connections that only allow nodes to flow both ways, nodes that change vertices like a train track switch, etc. This project didn't get passed prototype phase because it didn't turn out to be all that fun, but it still had some potential.
