Neon Drifters

Player controller setup and multiplayer
Spline track editor
Driving on all surfaces and angles

Made for: Personal project

Neon Drifters is a game I made with solely my own assets and code. It is a 3D racing game where you can drive on any surface. I decided to add online multiplayer for extra practice and fun. I created the track using a custom spline tool and created the geometry using the splines.

Code Samples

JubiLite

Endless mode with player and enemy visuals I made with VFX graph
I added high-score functionality with a parser and writing to a file.

Made for: ScoreSpace Jam #10 [2 Year Anniversary!]

I and a team of two others created this game for the ScoreSpace Jam #10 over the course of three days. We won first overall and scored highly in all areas. The game consists of dodging enemies that move when you do. You can either go as fast as possible for more points or take it slow and try to stay alive. Yellow circular enemies will turn before they exit the board. Once they turn their color and shape change to red cubes.

3D/VR Player Movement VR Grappling Gun

Created block-out tutorial with Unity ProBuilder.
Testing multiple movement modes like wall running.
Testing grappling hook and second level.
Test enemies predict player movement and lead shots. Shots were made using Unity’s particle system.

Made for: Personal Projects

In this project, I worked on building out a character controller and movement mechanics for future use. I also spent time trying to implement a grappling hook and wall running for added depth to the movement. This project I made this into a playable virtual reality build so I could test out the technology and how it would mesh with my already-built mechanics.

Neon Revolution

Experimenting with mini-map and particle systems.
Different particle systems are used for different patterns of enemies.
Using Post-processing effects to change the game’s look at runtime.

Made for: Personal Projects

Neon Revolution is a neon bullet hell-style game. I created from scratch using all my own sprites, scripts, and systems except for the music. This game is almost entirely made through Unity’s particle system.
