Computer Programming Graduate
Hi, I am Ross, a graduate from Abertay University with a BSc(Hons) in Computer Games Application Development.
Currently based in Dundee, I have skills in C++, Unreal Engine 5, SFML and DirectX11.
Listed below are projects I have worked on throughout my time in computing.
Chronicles of Marten
A linear hack-and-slash set deep inside a mystical ancient forest in the Scottish Highlands.
Created for a university project, I was one of two programmers in a team of eight students working on this game.
What I Worked On:
Enemy AI
Enemy Attacks
Target Lock On System
Carrying Mechanic
Puzzle Systems
Wisp Guide Movement
Doors and Chest Systems
2-Button Systems in FPS Games
For my honours project i created and tested multiple varieties of possible two-button control systems in first person shooters.
This project set out to create a more accessible control scheme for new players while still providing an equal game experience.

Dead Fraternity
This game was created as an entry into the January 2026 Global Game Jam with a group of 6 developers.
Having only 48 hours and a small team to create this playable experience, we decided to create a collectible focused game with heavy emphasis on environmental design, smooth gameplay and fun dialogue.
In Dead Fraternity, players use a disguise to get into a beyond the grave, college frat party and gain evidence of this phenomenon's existence.
