LOWAA - Spirals - Boss Fighter
Fire Emblem: Immortal Sword - Sonic Smackdown - Mugen

LOWAA

LOWAA is a fangame based on the webcomic property Homestuck. You play as Eridan, an alien "Troll" from another universe who has just entered a reality-altering video game comprised of personalized worlds, worlds designed to challenge each player's personal mentalities and help them mature into fully-realized heroes. Eridan's planet is a stark, uninviting place, covered in grand cathedrals. The skies are filled with dark figures in flight, implacable and menacing. Eridan only knows of one way to solve problems, and that is by using his legendary rifle, Ahab's Crosshairs.

Other players will try to dissuade him from his course, but by then it will be too late

I worked on Sonic Smackdown in Fall 2019 as a programmer, focusing on game feel, user interface, and AI, and worked on character balance. This includes implementing CPU controlled fighters with multiple difficulty levels, adding to training mode functionality, redoing the input system to feel more intuitive to control, adjusting frame data, and adding or cleaning up many in-game menus. I also helped present the game at CEOtaku 2019.

Spirals

Spirals is a "bullet hell" style shoot-'em-up where you, the player, set the parameters of the battle. Set the enemy to one of millions of configurations and test yourself against a hell of your own creation. Maneuver with care, analyze the pattern, and take your opening - or just experiment with the sliders and see what interesting systems emerge.

BOSS FIGHTER

In BOSS FIGHTER you FIGHT BOSSES! You are TINY and they are HUGE and that makes you MORTAL ENEMIES! BOSS FIGHTER is an attempt to take the hectic, unforgettable combat style of the so-called "Spectacle Fighter" genre and pack it into a humble 2D format. Using jump cancels, dive kicks, and powerful charged uppercuts, overcome these insurmountable odds with style! It is recommended you use a gamepad for the intended experience.
