Professional Projects
Here are some of the older games I world on.
Eagle Eye
I was the Producer and Designer on this project. It was a puzzle platformer were the player had to switch between three characters. It had some cool puzzles and mini-games. The game launched on BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, BREW, and Java ME devices. I was particularly happy with the Hacking mini game. It was built with the Pyke engine.
Daytona USA Mobile
I was the Producer and Designer on this project. It was a mobile racing game. The physics engine was built using fixed point mathematics. Maps were generated using a custom b-spine editor. I also was responsible for designing a the spline-based track modeling system for the game. The solution allowed the games data set to be reused between the top-down 2D SKU and the 3rd person 3D SKU of the game.
This game was built pre-iOS. There were not many tools/game engines for mobile game development. As with all feature phone games of the time, the production budget was heavily skewed toward the deployment process. The core development team was quite small compared to the QA and fanout team. Fragmentation was a major challenge of the times, and game mechanics had to be generalized across a broad spectrum of input schemes, platforms and performance profiles. Much of the design and implementation efforts, despite a strong abstraction layer, was focused on the deploability of the game.
We produced a separate 2D sprite based game for the lower end phones. The two games shared the same 2D rigid body physics engine.
Miner 2049er
Yet another side scroller. This was the first side scroller i worked on. It is a remake the 1984 Electronic Games - Game Of The Year. My version received the IGN Editor's Choice Award and also won the Best Revival category in the Best Of 2007 IGN awards.
The team size on this project was 3 people. I ran the team of 3 and served as designer and programmer on the project.
