Hi! I'm James, a game designer from Ireland. I am currently working as a Junior Game Designer at Black Shamrock - a Virtuous Studio.
I have experience using Unreal Engine 5 and Unity Engine. My favourite video game is Hades, I also love to play D&D. Ever since I can remember, I have been passionate about games. This passion eventually turned into a desire to create them, with my areas of interest being Game and Level Design.
Temporarily named, Project Skill is a Rogue-like with RPG elements. Use the adaptability of your curse, to switch your skills mid-dungeon run.
After finishing university, I started to work on Project Skill using Unreal Engine 5.
Full details for my design on Project Skill along with a video of the prototype are available here.
Dublin in Overwatch is a personal project to further learn Unreal Engine 5 by creating an Overwatch push map set in Dublin City.
Full details for my design on Dublin in Overwatch along with a video of the level prototype are available here.
For my Game Design modules in University, I would spend up to two to three weeks iteration on and prototyping a game idea. Each new game idea would focus on new game mechanics or game design topics.
Some of my favourites are available here.
