Ongoing development
Coopbots
The prototype of "Coopbots" was a project in the 4th semester for which we had 4 weeks. A team of 1 producer, 4 artists and 2 programmers.
We had further support from external artists and programmers.
On this project, I took on the role of Assistant Tech Lead. I assisted the Tech Lead and was largely involved in the programming of the game.

MTD (Prototype)
Description:
MTD (Multiplayer Tower Defense) is a dynamic and immersive game I am developing in Unreal Engine 5.4. This project serves as a platform to expand my expertise in both C++ programming and Unreal's advanced multiplayer netcode, allowing me to create a robust and engaging multiplayer experience.
MTD's concept blends elements of tower defense strategy with a first-person combat experience designed to give players flexibility in how they interact with the game. In solo mode, players can fully explore the first-person gameplay, engaging with various defense modules, browsing in-game shops, and battling a variety of hostile creatures with a diverse selection of weapons. For players seeking a more social experience, MTD offers the ability to seamlessly host online sessions, allowing friends to join in, strategize, and face challenges together.
A key feature of the prototype game will be a single-player save and load system, allowing players to pause their progress and resume their journey later without losing any achievements or progression. This feature enhances the replayability of the game and appeals to both casual and dedicated players.
The challenge of the game increases progressively through a round-based enemy spawn system. Each new round introduces hostile creatures with increasingly complex stats and behaviors, keeping players engaged and forcing them to adapt their strategies as the game intensifies. As a result, MTD delivers an experience that combines the thrill of first-person combat with strategic tower defense mechanics, offering a unique twist on the traditional tower defense genre.
