My first professional project, and first console title! I hopped into this game as an intern and had grown substantially as an engineer by the time we’d released it.

While this game came a bit short of revolutionizing the world of gaming, the opportunity to work on it was career-changing, and hidden between the game’s many silly moments are small achievements with which I am quite proud.

This game has also spawned many incredible Let’s Plays.

  • Spearheaded and overhauled third-person character movement
  • Implemented several subsystems and minigames
  • Worked closely with designers and artists to ensure all implemention met their vision
