My Involvement:

I participated in the development of Lostville over a 10 month contract. During that time I worked on several aspects of the game but most notably:

• Advanced character controller and animation blending for smooth traversal and parkour style gameplay around the city and its various environments
• Designed and built a performance efficient NPC crowd system to simulate busy city life in an easy to use and performance friendly manner with NPCs that would travel throughout the city, perform various activities, enter and leave buildings and interact with the player
• Designed and built custom editor tools for level designers to implement and control NPC crowd System
• Designed and built instanced based scene management system with load balancing using Photon Fusion, allowing mmo style shared instanced areas on mobile
• Built city wide travel system for players to fast travel around the city via taxi network
• Consulted on design for IK tracking / aiming system for the games minor combat situations
