Experience
Design · Development · Research
Building urban simulation environments with RoadRunner, Unity and Blender. My work includes road-network editing, Unity import, traffic-light logic, model optimisation, LOD workflows and performance tuning for a multi-screen driving simulator.
Conducted playtests with more than 200 players, improved gameplay balance and UI/UX through iteration, and produced internal design documentation for gameplay systems.
About
I’m a Games Engineering student at the Technical University of Munich, focused on level design, gameplay systems and interactive environments. I enjoy moving between spatial design and implementation: prototyping a mechanic, building the world around it, then testing whether players read it the way I intended.
