Mukund Pareek

I'm the gameplay lead and sole C++ engineer at Galactic Studio, building Jalora, a UE 5.7 action-adventure RPG. I own the gameplay codebase across nine subsystems and delivered a playable vertical slice presented to investors.

I build gameplay systems spanning character movement, combat, AI, procedural puzzles, and multiplayer networking. My work includes a custom climbing mode with IK and stamina, weapon-agnostic combat for players and AI, and a seeded puzzle system that guarantees solvability.

Previously at Ojowa Entertainment, I architected multiplayer systems for a competitive FPS, including client prediction, server reconciliation, lag compensation, dedicated servers, matchmaking, and server-authoritative validation.

I've also delivered UI, gameplay abilities, AI, animation integrations, crossplay, storefront features, and user-generated maps across contract and studio projects. I care about testable systems, clear C++/Blueprint boundaries, performance, and helping non-programmers ship content independently.
