My Contribution

On Bluey’s Quest, I designed and developed mechanics, gameplay, and systems across the entire game. I was responsible for prototyping core player mechanics and expanding the gameplay by creating innovative gimmicks and obstacles that challenged players to use mechanics in exciting ways. Additionally, I designed quests and puzzle areas that combined mechanics and gameplay systems to create engaging play spaces for the game’s nine levels.I refined gameplay through tuning game feel on a mechanical level as well as collaborating closely with artists and audio engineers to implement final models, shaders and audio, ensuring every gameplay element met a high standard for visual communication and clarity. This iterative approach resulted in a well-crafted and polished game as evidenced by fantastic player and critical reviews.

My Contribution

On Fruit Ninja Classic, I drove improved retention on the Apple Arcade title by building and improving features using my skills in systems and UI /UX design.

These updates resulted in significant upticks in user engagement and Apple Arcade sessions – resulting in financial success.Due to the success of the game on Apple Arcade, my team and I were also tasked with porting the game to the Halfbrick+ subscription platform. This process involved implementing backend functionality and SDKs for Firebase, Helpshift, Playfab, Apple GameKit and more. These efforts resulted in Fruit Ninja Classic becoming the most played game on the Halfbrick+ service.
