The final capstone project I created at Full Sail University. It features a robot named Sid who always felt he was destined for adventure. When opening a crate he found in the junkyard, a mysterious chip installs itself giving him the abilities of a secret agent! Now he must complete the mission on the chip… stop the evil Bug King no matter the cost!

The Elemental Palace was a mid-term project created by me in conjunction with other students from Full Sail University. Master various elemental and creature abilities and solve the mystery of the palace. This game features a fantasy setting with fast gameplay and challenging difficulty. Click to learn more.

Ever since I got my HTC Vive I’ve been fascinated with the new types of experiences that could be created. I was blown away by the level of immersion VR allowed. So I decided to take an existing franchise that I adored and create a new way to enjoy it. The result is Pokemon VR!

A level renderer built for a custom game engine provided a new and challenging project. A custom created file reader parsed geometry data and rendered a scene using the GPU. Project completed in less than 2 weeks using OpenGL and C++.

The final project in Artificial Intelligence was to design an intelligence for Ms PacMan. The goal was to get the best possible score over 100 rounds.

As an introduction to artificial intelligence, I used various tree traversal techniques to have the application will find the optimal path to the target depending on a number of factors.

The classic game of reversi played with two artificial opponents.The black stone player has a custom AI written by me, the white stones are the default implementation.

Experimenting with artificial intelligence, this application sees the effect that applying various flocking techniques to a set of boids.

Conway’s Game of Life isn’t a game in the traditional aspect. It’s a cellular automaton which was devised by British mathematician John Conway in 1970. This implementation was written in .NET using the Windows Forms API. Click to see more.

Learned the foundations required for using modern software and hardware 3-D rendering systems. Worked with core computer-graphics concepts such as rasterization, interpolation, and the 3-D transformation pipeline.

Learned new ways to manage memory efficiently. I created a particle system where different particle emitters use different memory allocation techniques.

For this project I was able to manipulate matrices to create 2 objects in the world that perform video game staple behaviors. The Look-At matrix, and the Turn-To matrix.

Developing crucial pieces of a game engine gave me the opportunity to learn a wide array of skills, from memory management, collision detection, frustum culling and advanced 3D Math skills.

During my studies I had the opportunity to learn Assembly language. This was always something I was passionate about because I loved playing the Game Boy when I was growing up. While the Game Boy used Z80 assembly, in this course I used MIPS assembly to write my programs.
