Delved into the base Unreal 3 C++ code to make tweaks not attainable in UnrealScript. Performed the role of UDK Script programmer and design evaluator in a team of twenty. Developed the majority of HUD, radar, camera, user input, checkpoint, and weapon code. Built a C# play testing tool that transmits player metrics to a MySQL database. Designed and iterated upon a C++ OpenGL game for PC and Xbox similar to the original 1986 Atari arcade classic with appropriate graphics, user interface, and sound. Resolved many issues pertaining to racing games such as collision detection, dynamic AI opponents, local multiplayer, elevations changes, and engaging arcade gameplay. Woodland Heroes (Flash, PHP): Amended QA issues and bugs by reviewing user stories, database transactions, and an existing code base for a previously released Facebook game.
