Pokemon World Silver
Solo Project
Primary Developer
Sep 2023-Jan 2024
Pokémon World Silver is a Warcraft 3 mod that incorporates assets from Pokémon games, drawing inspiration from them. As the sole designer, I aimed for a balance between accessibility and depth, offering a less competitive experience while retaining the strategic intricacies inherent to the Pokémon franchise. This mod faithfully recreates many mechanics from the Pokémon universe within the confines of an RTS engine.
Lost
Magic
Solo DigiPen Project
January 2022-December 2022
Lost Magic is a platformer with an emphasis on hack and slash combat and boss battles. In this project, I designed satisfying-to-use controls and abilities, three levels, and memorable boss encounters. To avoid players becoming overwhelmed, I gradually introduced elements. Boss battles were an important focus as a test of player's skills. Narrative elements hinged on the excitement of taking bosses down.
