This is the first big virtual reality game I worked on. I was involved in the early prototyping phase during which we created a 2v2 multiplayer demo that led to Oculus green lighting the project. During this project I took on the role of primary/lead designer and was responsible for coordinating the design team which at its peak consisted of 7 designers. The final game supported single player, 2p coop, 1v1 and 2v2 game modes.

After finishing Gatling Gears I was part of a team that created a demo / prototype that can be described as "free roaming Gatling Gears".
This demo caught the attention of 343i and Microsoft and the "Bootcamp" (the working title for Halo Spartan Assault) project was born.
The game is basically a top-view twin-stick shooter for touch devices.
For this game I worked on the core mechanics, bringig the Halo FPS experience to the tablet and phone.
After that I worked on the overall design, core game mechanics, AI design and scripting and level design.

My Horse & Me
2007, Wii & PC
This is the first game that I worked on as a game designer. Clearly I was not part of the target audience for this game,

This is a game about the equestrian sport meant to be played by young girls who like horses.
I joined the project when it was about 1 year in the making. I worked on the overall design, core mechanics & controls and level design.
