Developer Skills
Skill set breakdown
Unity Game Development
I have been working with unity for 5 years now, since I began my degree in 2016. This means I have strong C# and problem solving skills, as well as a knowledge of serialization and Saving games
Asset Creation
I have spent a lot of time creating 3D models and 2D sprites for my games. Although the quality isn't the best, I believe IÂ have enough knowledge to be able to create basic games.
Agile Development
An industry standard, I have been agile focused since it was introduced to me. I used this extensively for my Dissertation, where IÂ actually did early design work on a trello board in a centralisation test.

My Work
Insight into what I've done with my time at university
Starting on a foundation course in 2016, I was returning from full time work to study what I enjoyed. Game Development.
​
I aced the foundation year and started on the Computing & Games Development Course. In my first year I produced a zombie shooter prototype, named the Living Dead Syndrome. This was my first attempt at a game.
​
Between my first and second year, I began development of a VR game, named The Hunting Season VR, producing a prototype and releasing it on Itch.io. This is what I believe to be my biggest achievement to date, as it really pushed me to learn new things, in a topic area I truly loved, Virtual Reality.
​
During my second year I produced two game designs, firstly "Dem Slippery Slopes" a downhill racing game where choosing the correct path was key, and then "The Nuclear Prevention Programme", an escape room experience set inside a nuclear bomb shelter. These games were produced for coursework modules, however I still put everything into them I could possibly fit during their 3 month development cycle.
​
My final year dissertation "Special Space Force", a Sci-Fi Turn Based Strategy game with army management and a narrative combat system, will be released to itch.io as a demo of a potential full game, should there be support for it. So far, my marketing has led to lots of interest.
