I build high-performance Unity gameplay and multiplayer systems for mobile games with millions of downloads.
What I'm looking for
I've built gameplay systems, mobile features, and multiplayer client/server functionality across Unity titles with millions of downloads.
At Cipher Coders, I'm building networking, gameplay logic, and cross-platform mobile performance for a large-scale multiplayer Unity title. I also built a chat-based admin command system used daily for live debugging, QA checks, and reproducing edge-case bugs.
At Nine Pixels, I developed mechanics, UI, and features across 2D, 3D, and hypercasual mobile games, with three titles surpassing 1M downloads. I re-architected ageing codebases into reusable modules, cutting memory use by 30%, improving frame rate by 25%, and reducing QA-reported defects by 70%.
I've also shipped iOS and Android action, shooting, and simulation games at Galassia Studios, while leading a small level-design and narrative team. My work includes Ninja Ryuko, Mission IGI, Gangster Crime Simulator, and the in-progress Wars 2 Unity MMO.
