TSOA

IslandGame

ButterTown

This is the first proper Unreal Engine project, that I am doing together with two other people. A dark fantasy RPG inspired by Dark Souls and Lovecraft.

A game project taking place entirely on an island. Again inspired by Lovecraft and using the Unreal Engine, however, the gameplay is rather minimalistic. For most of this C++ is used.

Buttertown is the beautiful WIP name of an Unreal project that aims to combine PS1 style graphics with an interesting postapocalyptic world. It started out with Blueprints and is in the process of being converted into C++.

Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences (Lecturer)

At Anima Res I was mainly concerned with programming medical AR / MR / VR applications within Unity and within a great team. One of the main projects of mine was Insight Lung. I had a lof of fun there.

At the Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences (FHV) I was working first as project staff at a research center called Human Centered Technologies. My main task there was the development of the project Caretrain, an application for the Microsoft HoloLens 2 aiming to help students learn to auscultate the heart. This was a very interesting project with fun challenges and a great team.

My second position at the Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences (FHV) was at the Department of Design, where I was a lecturer. The subjects I taught focused around digital and interactive projects. I very much enjoyed working with the students.

3D Modelling

Fencer

Mors Certa

The fencer project is not quite finished yet. Programs used include Blender, MarvelousDesigner, TopoGun, and Substance Painter. The result will be renders and possibly a small animation.

Mors Certa is a dark fantasy sword inspired by the game Blasphemous. For this project I used Blender and Substance Painter.

Unity Tasks

BehaviourTree

Unity Editor Tools

For an AR project I once made it my task to create my own Behaviour Tree system within unity. I always very much enjoyed the process of editor- or toolprogramming. We ended up not continuing this project, and so I couldn’t test the Behaviour Tree extensively. Still, I learned a lot about the graph system within Unity.

A game project eventually got big enough to merit the programming of quite a few tools. Of course, this was not a decision but they simply grew over time.

From left to right and top to bottom these tools are:

A Damage Graph to visually manage damage calculations
A Scene Selector to view and play any scene without leaving the editor scene
A window to create variables as ScriptableObjects
A custom ID tool (similar to Tags but more customizable)
A window to create instances of a custom MVC framework (ScriptableObjects)
An ActSystem, a tool that executes acts (like playing sounds) when certain conditions are met)
The Attack Animation window, to manage colliders, audio and more along with attack animations
A custom inspector for ScriptableObjects that checks if certain data is valid and also tries to synchronize them with a GoogleSheet
