Greedy Goblin was my Capstone project at the University of Utah EAE ungraduated program. The game was released on Steam and sat #1 at the top of New and Trending free games.
I worked on both the design and art teams.
For the design team I worked on level design layouts and character designs.
For the art team I worked on 3D models, textures, and animations.

A turn based tactics game where the player commands a cast of unique heroes as they travel across space and time in order to power up and defeat the evil lord Cthulhu. Build up your party by destroying mini-bosses and their lackeys in preparation for the final battle to save the universe! This project was a stretch goal for a successfully crowdfunded game by Sandy Petersen's company, Petersen Games. I was involved internally with production and communication.
Just One Bard: MOBA style PVE experience
Link to Game: https://www.startalegames.com/just-one-bard
For "Just One Bard", I was level designer for the spaceship overworld, ruin level, and the medieval village. I worked closely with programmers, 2D/ 3D artists, and more. In addition to the in-engine work I did for this project I also served as the team's producer. I managed team member tasks in trello using a Kanban methodology. When the team would meet in person or online I would run short effective scrum meetings.
Necroquest: Casual Mobile Adventure Game
Necroquest was created to be a hyper casual mobile adventure game. We wanted limited controls (Toggle stick, 3 ability buttons, and tap to walk) but still allow the player to explore new areas, use interesting abilities, and command their own team of Cronies. On our small team I was the game designer, level designer, writer, and unit designer. Overall the project was a great learning experience for all of us on the team. A scrapped ambitious customizable village system taught me an awful lot about small team development through remote communication. At the end of the day, the most important thing when making a game with other people is to be able to communicate effectively together.
