Eye of the Erime
Puzzle Adventure
What is Eye of the erime?
Eye of the erime is an upcoming 3D puzzle adventure game being developed by the 2024-2025 Bradley University Game Design and Development Masters cohort. Equip with only a camera, you explore the ruins of the long gone Erime civilization in order to find your mother. Understanding the Erime's technology and how the camera interacts with the flora of the ruins is key to understanding their downfall and preventing yourself from succumbing to the same fate.

What Did I Do?

- Engineered, implemented, and iterated on all of the games backend systems.
- Worked with narrative designers to create an interactive journal that was both interesting to the player and easy for the narrative team to work with
- Strove to create robust systems that were neat and easy for the designers to use
- Sole programmer for controller support leading to the game reaching a wider audience age range
- Oversaw and maintained a neat and well documented code base
- Proactively worked with UI/UX to create an experience that was as enjoyable and accessible as possible.
