Essentially, I would love to take up a role in designing and actively contributing to the visual stile of a game, animation or any other form of visual media.
If I can, I would also like to help out on the more technical aspects of a project.
Be it writing code for a game, tweaking and editing animations.

I have been making art since 2010 and got into game development in 2017.
To date, i have developed, designed, coded, scored, animated and written 10 games on my own(with help on the music for both The Floor Is Lava games in 2023, the music was provide by @hicdotnunc).

Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
I wrote, designed, developed, programmed, scored, animated and directed Dead Dead Oxygen.
Both the vanilla version as well as the arcade HBCF version.
In both versions, the goal is to reach the bottom of a mystical Southern African lake to exorcise a demon that has been possessing and turning all the fish into monsters.
Promptly after the the annual Pursuing Pixels Game Jam of 2023, i began working on and remaking 2 versions of my very first game: "Projek, The Floor Is Lava"(PTFIL)
I had released 2 versions:
- The vanilla version: time based platformer where the goal for the player is to make to the end of a maze befor time runs out.
- The survival version: player must reach the end before being engulfed by lava
From the 14th of May to the 21st(2023), i took part in the annual Pursuing Pixels game jam and developed Tumaininchian Flight Simulator for the theme "penalized" where you lose your rank as a fighter pilot on each death.
A week later, i released an arcade version in which the player scores points and upgrades and moves up ranks on each successful level/mission.
In March of 2021 I began official production of my very first commercial game titled: Kelly White Super Yellow Wolfe. A non linear game about a young aspiring pilot named Kelly who dreams of flying into the far reaches of space to save her race.
