PROJECTS
FROSTWALKER
This personal project is a 'choose your own adventure' style mobile web app currently in development. Built using the ionic framework in Angular/Typescript. I am also creating a companion mobile card game built in Unity.
ANTARCTIC GAMES
AntArctic Games Ltd. was a collaboration of myself and couple of other developers who enjoy developing games. I, along with the others, created the branding and design for our website.
AMYLOIDS
Amyloids is a simple asteroids-like game created by us for Alzheimer's Research UK in Unity. I was heavily involved in both the creation of graphical assets and development for the game.
LUNARA
Another personal project I poured a lot of time and passion into was the site development, world-building and rule creation for a DnD inspired table-top RPG which I still play with friends.
