Summary

Game Developer
With 5+ years in game development, I’ve built and shipped over 50 titles across genres like puzzle, idle, shooter, and simulation. As a studio founder, I led both technical development and business operations, including LiveOps and project management.
I specialize in modular Unity systems (inventory, skills, economy), and use URP + Shader Graph for optimized visuals. I’ve run successful LiveOps for high-engagement games like Wild West Gunfighter and managed 4 soft launches with data-driven iteration.
I also maintain a GitHub portfolio focused on reusable, production-ready Unity tools.
