The Chinese Room (2019 – Present)

During my time at the studio, I have worked extensively on prototypes and vertical slices for several unannounced projects.

Most of my time is spent developing first person combat and traversal systems, the latter in both runtime collision trace and designer markup styles.

I also have experience in implementing physics-based VR interactions and traversal.

In addition to my project work, all of which remains under NDA at this time, I have also participated in various game jams at the studio. I use these to try out ideas, platforms or genres outside of what I normally make:

Turbo Tanks – A physics based arcade tank combat game.

What's a Creative Jam with the theme 'CHAOS' without a Turbo Tanks game??

Our Junior Designer @NOTRobertHarper teamed up w/ Senior Artist @Gillespionage for this charming entry – they conjured up the physics & AI in less than 2 days on @UnrealEngine and the result is a blast! 💥 pic.twitter.com/uyvml2TGVn

Daily Grind – A one-button infinite skater for mobile.

Technical Designer Rob @NOTRobertHarper and Lead Environment Artist Iain @Gillespionage made Daily Grind – a side-scrolling infinite skater, built in Unreal Engine and Maya.

The design was inspired by Alto's Adventure, with its simple yet compelling one-button gameplay. 🤩 pic.twitter.com/GXjITXyYhP
