Six years building games in Unreal, mostly on the systems side. Gameplay and character code, multiplayer replication, and the editor tools that sit underneath a production.
I shipped a hand-tracking VR game for Meta Quest 3 commissioned by the Gran Canaria Tourism Board, worked as lead programmer on the Unreal Engine 5 build of a PlayStation Talents finalist, and run my own studio with a title heading to Steam.
Most of my tooling ends up here as a plugin. If a job has to be done twice by hand I usually end up writing the tool for it.
| OmegaTeller (experimental) | UE 5.8 | Narrative design tool. Parses a GDD into per-character branching story trees edited as a node graph, with a bundled local LLM keeping merges and splits narratively coherent. |
| Kinemotion | UE 5.5+ | Markerless motion capture. GPU pose inference through NNE, 133 keypoints decoded into a 19-bone skeleton, streamed over a custom Live Link source. |
| Optilogger | UE 5.3+ | Level resource audit in a single pass. Memory estimation, shader instruction counts, frustum culling and JSON export, all in a Slate window. |
| SmartFolders | UE 5.6 | Rule-driven Content Browser organizer. Type-based and name-grouping modes, batch operations, full undo. |
| Paint System | UE 5.4 | Runtime vertex-colour painting for static and skeletal meshes, per-channel RGBA, Blueprint API. |
| Procedural Animated System | UE 5.5 | Terrain-aware generator that spawns spline bridges, ladders and ramps from surface normals. |
| Grass Generator | UE 5.3 | Landscape tool for filling and painting grass layers with distribution and density control. |
