This game was produced during the Graveler Game Jam weekend in Tübingen. The mighty pirates have robbed the Louvre. Now they are trying to flee. But fear not! YOU have the glorious and prestigious task to go after them, sink their ships, and gather the precious treasure to bring it back to the French Warehouse™.

Role

I contributed to the game-idea brainstorming, helped iterate on ideas and mechanics, and created 3D assets and animations. I also made sure the mood and communication in the team stayed good throughout the weekend and that everyone stayed well-fed with snacks. Very important, aye!

VR Game for Educational Purposes (2025)

This is a prototype developed at the IWM Tübingen. It is a space racer game in which the user answers questions by flying through the correct gate. The questions are integrated via an external browser tool that generates a JSON file. This file can then be imported into Unity to update the game with the desired questions. The game can be used in various educational contexts, such as language and vocabulary learning.

Role

I contributed to the initial concept during the brainstorming phase and later developed the prototype in Unity, as well as the browser tool, with assistance from ChatGPT.

Tangram Bulls Eye (2022)

This is a version of Tangram in which the players play against each other. They have to arrange the Tangram stones as shown on their cards, as fast as possible.

The game can be bought at Philos.

Role

This was one of a series of Tangram games, in which I was responsible for the graphics design.

Global Game Jam (2020)

This game was developed at the Global Game Jam 2020 in Stuttgart. It is a game about Captain Zlorp who needs to fix his ship with the help of his most caring AI, before the next enemy wave arrives.

The game can be downloaded here.

Role

I was responsible for the protagonist's design and animation, the interface and helped out with some of the assets and project management.

Bachelor's Thesis (2020)

For my bachelor's thesis I planned and partly developed a third person explorative game in Unity. I went through the different steps of game development with the focus on Animation.

Implementation and Learnings

I made all the graphics and assets in Paint Tool Sai, Photoshop, Substance Painter, Mudbox and Maya. For project management I used the online tool hack'n'plan.

During the process I learned how huge and complex game development is. I dealt with a wide range of tasks, including 3D modelling and animation, C# coding, world-building in Unity, and user testing. I also understood that the scrope of the game was way too large for the amount of time and little knowledge I had at that time. In the end it became a playground for me to get into different disciplines of game development. The user testing I did was very helpful to get feedback about the controls and the overall feel of the game.
