The most amazing...
...thing I've developed is a particle emission system used across a proprietary slot games library for upcoming concept games.
Employment
Experience
- Particle Emission System
I developed a particle emission system for our land-based slot games allowing us to add new features to upcoming concept games like specialized finger-tracing effects.
I also wrote a utility application to aid in the creation of these new emitter effects for our platform that would allow users to drag and drop images into the sandbox area and easily modify the results until achieving their desired aesthetic. The utility app would then generate everything necessary for the particle effect to be added as a module to our existing game framework. - Mathematical Model Simulations
I built a template project for our Math class 3 team to assist in developing custom math sims for slot game models.
This project not only dramatically sped up the development time for math simulations but also reduced the number of return to player (RTP) discrepancies between the game developer's implementation of the game and the mathematician's original simulations. - Framework Development
I was the key contributor to developing the front-end framework for a library of proprietary HTML5 slot games. My involvement in this project provided much greater flexibility and allowed the development team I oversaw to successfully port some of the company's most complex class 3 games to the online gaming markets.
