Main Projects

Couch Combat

Couch Combat is a split-screen first-person shooter game I developed over the course of 2 years and commercially released it on Steam. It has sold over 1,000 copies. It was developed in Unity with C#, and I handled all the 3D modeling, programming, and game design.

As my first big project, I learned a lot about project organization and planning. Over time, I had to refactor old code as I gained more experience. My main focus was to create a solid game with fun core gameplay and plenty of content.

Notable Features:

Local multiplayer supporting up to 4 players using keyboard and controllers
A unique, roguelike-inspired modifier system allowing chaotic combinations of effects like low-gravity, dual wielding weapons, and more

MythoMania

Demo Steam Page Devlog Playlist

MythoMania is an action roguelike I am currently developing in my spare time. Built in Unity with C#, I am collaborating with an artist. In the game, you stack powerful items, unlock new skills, and form tenuous alliances with gods. It is heavily inspired by Risk of Rain 2 and Hollow Knight.

Notable Features:

A game director that constructs enemy waves based on a point budget, upgrading enemies into stronger variants
A versatile item system inspired by Risk of Rain 2 where items can have any of effects (stat modifiers, creating objects, status effects.) The system supports stacking items with several modes of scaling (linear, exponential, reciprocal) and has been used to make over 40 unique items already.
An enemy design system which allows me to quickly create new enemies with a variety of attack types (projectile, movement, melee attacks, custom events) which can be combined together to create more complicated enemy attacks.
An in-development negotiation mechanic where you can trade items with god npcs in the game in exchange for various upgrades and abilities. The gods prefer some items over others, and may dislike or like you more for having an alliance with another god.

Game / Mechanic Recreations

The Legend of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild

Demo GitHub

I recreated the four runes from *The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild* in Unity, along with the game's glider, sword, and a simple water mechanic. Later, I added a time rewinding mechanic inspired by an early *Tears of the Kingdom* trailer.

Major Features:

Accurate recreations of the Magnesis, Remote Bomb, Stasis, and Cryonis runes with visual effects
A time rewinding mechanic that stores object positions and rotations and smoothly rewinds them back in time, affecting other physics objects

Minecraft

Demo GitHub

A simple recreation of Minecraft’s core mechanics in Unity with added explosions.

Major Features:

Procedural world generation using Perlin noise
Breaking and building mechanics for all block types
Explosion mechanic with realistic visual effects that destroys blocks in an area
Voxel rendering with face culling for performance optimization

Attack On Titan ODM Gear Mechanic

Demo GitHub

A recreation of the omni-directional movement (ODM) gear from *Attack on Titan*.

Major Features:

Movement system imitating ODM gear, easy to pick up but with a high skill ceiling
A boss fight against a large titan with procedural attack animations
A grappling system that auto-adjusts attachment points for smoother movement
