Creative Coding
Final Project (Fall 2019)

The goal of this project was to create a small one-level game to, where all functionality is scripted by myself. I came up with an idea of simple gameplay, reminiscent of my childhood when I would make up my own games with the mismatched toys I had. The player must guide the rubber ducky to the doll house, avoiding the evil teddy bears in your way. The player only has a limited number of shots that stun the teddy bears for a short amount of time.

*All art/sound in this project was not made by me*

Foundations of Game Development
Final Project (Spring 2019)

The goal of this project was to design a five level game using the previously provided mechanics. I designed a puzzle platforming game, where the player must use clones of their drone to reach the activation zones simultaneously without falling off.
