About

Hello! My name is Cade,

I am a Heriot-Watt University Graduate with a MDes in Game Design & Development and a BSc in Computer Science.


Projects

Graveyard Grunt

Game prototype developed in Unity for my Masters Project. Focused on designing an experience with elegant mechanics and a unique gameplay loop. Players are given a series of cleaning tasks to complete around a graveyard level, and must utilise the tools available to them to complete their job without being defeated by the graveyard residents.

Fireflies

Performance prototype developed in Unity. Simulating a large amount of boids, implemented a CPU bound and GPU bound version to highlight performance optimisations/improvements.


Kaiju Kanvas

Unity prototype for a painting mechanic to be used in a tentative game called “Kaiju Kanvas”. Worked with shaders to achieve the painting effect. During the development of this project, I also designed and populated a Wiki to detail different elements for the proposed game, such as outlining approaches to Accessibility, Balancing etc.

Blade Boogie

University group coursework project, worked with three other developers within my cohort to create a functional Action-RPG prototype called ‘Blade Boogie’.
