Summary

Created for the Abertay University DARE 2025 Competition Gobblin is a game about eating as much food as possible, creating power-ups through crafting, defeating enemies, and getting through the level as fast as your little goblin legs will carry you.Gobblin is a first-person arena-style action game with time-trial elements, gaining trophies based on how quickly you complete the level. Eat food to craft magical dishes that can be used to knock out the enemies and move through the level.I was responsible for implementing all of the audio into the game, alongside taking care of the project management side of the project.This game was made during DARE 2025, hot-housed in Abertay University!You can play the current version of the game using this link!

Summary

Created for a fourth year audio programming module this project focused on creating dynamic audio using WWise as middleware in Unreal Engine 5. This was done through pathing within the interactive audio options within WWise such as RTPCs Randomisers and Post Events, as well as implementing attenuation, dynamic footsteps based on physics material. As well as music that I had created for the project inside of FL Studio 21.

Summary

Created for my fourth year honours Project The goal was to create an adaptive audio system based off of real-time ECG and respiration rate data inside of a horror game styled environment.Update 1:
Unity project has been created, using WWise integration along side Unity's animation manager to play footstep sounds from a WWise randomised container (having randomised pitch and volume). Have also added attenuation sphere for randomised sounds, this plays a sound from a different randomised container when the timer reaches zero, as well as using RTPC's to turn down the volume of the ambient rain and footsteps while you're in the area.Update 2:
Real-time adaptive audio implementation through python processed CSV using bioharness sensor for secondary attenuation area. Uses RTPC's linked to player ECG and RSP. These parameters are linked to audio range and volume respectively.You can look at the source through this link here!

Summary

Created for the Global Game Jam 2025, I was responsible for the art inside of the minigames "Bubblegum Pop", and "Shake the Can". I was also responsible for creating the art for the transition screens.
For programming, I was responsible for programming the audio reactive minigames "Bubblegum Pop" and "Speech Bubble". Which required checking the peak of the audio taken in from the microphone to make the minigames function.
Finally, I made minor contributions to creating the UI for the transition screens, as well as tweaking the code inside of the transition screens.The Global Game Jam submission is available here!

Summary

Created for DES310, a third year university project and graded B+, I was responsible for overseeing the core enemy AI, animation states and VFX.Core Enemy AI
The enemies use a state machine to switch between how they should interact with the player, these are all handled through a primary switch statement. The enemy's have cooldowns between their attacks and queuing back up, with their placement helping to telegraph which enemy is next for attacking. This is all done within the queueing state.
The attack state brings them towards the player, attempting to deal damage before walking out of the crowd of enemies until they've reached a certain distance away from the player's, this is part of their cooldown state.Animation State Machines
Animation states for the player are handled separately as to try and keep the work load smaller for the artists on the team. Each player has an animation state which is called upon whenever an output is called, by using the attack script which checks a string of inputs done by both plays, and depending on if the attacks are part of a combo or not, will sync of differentiate the animation sprites.VFX System
This was a separate node called within the project which was called whenever an object or enemy took damage. The main function took in parameters for the particle name, particle count, and location. These were then spawned in as a child of the VFX manager node, each having their own timers so that they would delete themselves and save on performance on the project.
The particle Spawner would check a switch statement which looked for the particle name, spawning the correct particle type as well as any other parameters, all of the variables were temporary as to free space performance wise.
The main benefit of this Particle Manager was that it could be expanded on with it's modular implementation.Other
For the Enemy Manager, I made sure that it was accessible to designers, using an array of vector2's to set the location of the enemies for each zone, and the array size being how many enemy's the designer wanted to spawn into each zone. Furthermore, it allowed the designer to change how many elites would spawn in each zone through an integer at the top of the manager's exported variables.The final playable demo can be played here!
