Self-Published Games

Nihsul's Castle - PC
Nihsul's Castle was a school project made in 2016 where I focused on how to incorporate assets and animations. The project was in Unreal and I used Epic's free assets from Infinity Blade along with their particle effect package.
Supernova Escape - App Store
Supernova Escape was another game that I completed for a school project. It was made in Xcode and was a Shoot Em Up similar to Galaga. The objective is to destroy all the bosses and hopefully set a new high score.
Convoy Clash - Google Play
Convoy Clash was a final school project that included 3 team members. It was a fun team project that had unique benefits and challenges.
Adventure Land - Google Play
My first published game. A short simple game in Unity for both iOS and Android. I wanted to get familiar with mobile development and get a game out on both platforms.
