EXPERIENCE

PROJECTS

REAL TIME STRATEGY DEMO

Unity Old School RTS Tech Demo

This is a tech demo I made in Unity to test out some ideas for an old school real time strategy game. It features a simple resource gathering system, building and repair system, unit selection, movement, and combat, enemy AI, and enemy wave system. The game is still very much unfinished and buggy but I was able to see the work required to create a bigger project from start to finish. The difference in my approach and understanding of game systems from the beginning to the *end* of the project is night and day. You can check out the project on itch.io with the link below.

MICRO SHOOTER

A micro shooter game for wild jam 86

This is a small point and click shooter game meant for the wild jam 86 game jam. Developed over the course of a couple days, I booted up Godot for the first time and learned the engine the best I could over the course of the project. As a two man team I was tasked with the programming and the art was left to my partner. In the end I got to do some pixel art practice creating the masks quickly so that I could upload the project as this was ultimately what was left when we missed the deadline for the jam. You can check out the project on itch.io with the link below.

CARD COUNTING GAME

HiLo Blackjack card counting game

This is a small website I made one weekend to practice card cointing using the HiLo system. It features a simple game where you keep the runnning count of 1 - 8 decks of cards as they are dealt. The game is made with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

HEXACOLOR WEBSITE GAME

Dynamic Color Guessing Game

wordle like game where you guess the hex code of a color. This was a passion project I made one weekend after showing some friends hexacodle a similar game with only a daily color to guess like wordle. I wanted a site where me and my friends could practice as much as we wanted without waiting a day for the new color. This was made with HTML, CSS, and PHP.

DIGITAL LIBRARY WEBSITE

Dynamic Database Driven Personal Book Catalog

This is a project I made for a course where I had to create a dynamic website with a database. I wanted to make a personal book catalog where I could keep track of the books I have read and want to read. It features a login system, book search, and book management system. It was made with HTML, CSS, PHP, and MySQL.

AMEN CONFERENCE WEBSITE

CONFERENCE LANDING PAGE

This is a landing page I made for the AMEN conference in Abbotsford, BC. It was a project I did for friends and it was a great experience to work with a team of people to create a website that was used for an event. It was made with Wix.

ROGUELITE GAME

A roguelite game I am working on, where you play as a bacteria trying to survive in a petri dish. The game features a fast paced experience where you fight of bacteria as long as possible becoming the strongest virus you can be.
