About me

I’m an indie game developer and designer focused on creating engaging player experiences. I work across all aspects of game development: programming, design, and art.

This gives me the flexibility to shape both the technical and visual sides of a project. I enjoy experimenting with small game projects, joining game jams, and tackling technical challenges to deliver fun and polished results.

For Light Bridger, I started from the idea of using light as a physical tool. This evolved into a puzzle platformer where players build bridges and paths out of laser beams. I explored how light could interact with the environment through mirrors and reflections to create clever, skill-based puzzles. Through this project, I learned to design mechanics that encourage creative problem-solving while maintaining a clear and consistent vision.

For this project, I focused on creating a soft, inviting scene featuring a castle. I used a modular workflow to build the castle efficiently and applied custom shaders to enhance the surrounding nature elements. I also explored volumetric fog and clouds to give the scene a more atmospheric and immersive feel.

This 3D artwork captures the vibrant essence of a Philippines island. Bold architecture and striking colors come alive under the warm sun, reflecting across the serene ocean waters. Set on a sandy beach surrounded by swaying palms and lush greenery, the scene evokes the rhythmic crash of waves and the refreshing sea breeze. The piece is both an homage to the Philippines’ relaxed, tropical vibe and a tribute to the beauty of nature.

I made a kart for a playful, stylized racing game, based on a jeep design. I handled every step: modeling in Blender, baking, texturing with PBR materials, rigging, animating, and importing into Unity. The pipeline was set up for quick iterations, keeping the kart fun, readable, and full of personality.

This project features Robuddy, a retro-futuristic robot designed to assist with daily tasks in a ’70s suburban neighborhood. Modeled, rigged, and animated in Blender, PBR textured in Substance Painter, and rendered in Unity, Robuddy is optimized for game environments. Its whimsical yet practical design brings charm and personality to the scene. High-quality screenshots and a Sketchfab upload showcase the finished model and animations. This project was created as part of a Game Art course at DAE Howest, teaching rigging, animation, and the full PBR workflow.

This project is a dynamic recipe book where users can add and remove recipes. Data is stored in a MongoDB database and managed through an Express.js backend API hosted on Render. The frontend, built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, interacts with the backend to display and update recipes in real time, and is hosted on GitHub Pages.
