My Involvement

This was the second of two games I worked on for Strange Games Studios. My involvement on this project was as a freelance programmer, but it was a pretty small studio so I wound up doing working on both the codebase as well as a handful of simple visual assets and effects. Tasks I worked on for Honor and Duty: D-Day include dynamic ambient effects (e.g. planes dogfighting overhead, ambient AA cannons), particle systems, weapon handling animations, game logic, and some basic multiplayer code. Originally releasing on Playstation VR, this title eventually made it's way to Steam and still sees fairly regular online play.

I feel that I learned a lot from my time on this project, and it's super fun to look at it today and see some of my old work still kicking around.
