Gameplay Design
I love working on gameplay design in every game genre. Design philosophy and game mechanics are a blast to innovate on and create fun new experiences. These projects highlight my skills of design and my ability to adapt and iterate throughout development effectively in a team environment.

Terracotta Canyon is a class based Capture the Flag game with Power-ups. The map is set in a wild west like era as two rival bandit camps fight for control. There are a total of 7 unique classes with Minecraft feeling abilities and weapons to aid teams in capturing each other's flag. Located throughout the map are Power-ups that spawn and provide temporary buffs to aid players on both sides. Each team also has access to horses that respawn at stables. Players can use them to traverse the map for a limited time.

MAU is an Exploration Puzzle Platformer about a mummified cat returning to the land of the living inside of an Egyptian tomb. MAU's goal is to reunite with its master by retrieving its lost lives that are spread across the tomb. Traverse a nonlinear environment full of traps, enemies, and puzzles, but be careful! MAU's lives are its health points.
Freeze Point is a fresh take on both the Freeze Tag and the Hardpoint games. Freeze Point is a fast paced large team game in which teams gain score by controlling one or multiple control points on the map. Players must tag other players on the enemy team to freeze them solid. They can only be thawed by their teammates. Along with this mechanic, there are Power-ups that spawn around the map which can make or break team fights.
