Echoes of the Deep is a map for vanilla Quake designed to accommodate water as a central gameplay element, reimagining the mechanic no Quake level used before.

A furniture assembling simulator in VR. The player must creatively assemble various pieces of furniture to complete the level. IKEV (any coincidences with IKEA are random) messed up some orders so the player has to deal with a lack of furniture pieces and find a solution.

Exploration-based 2D metroidvania platformer focused on narrative interactions with under-represented creatures from Slavic mythology. In the design process, I focused on building rewarding exploration systems supported by engaging levels and combat.

Randomized 2D platformer with visual novel elements. The goal is to get five ingredients to help the blacksmith forge the best and the most loving heart for The Little Demon. Depending on what combination of the ingredients the player gets, they will discover one of eight endings.

The gameplay centers on creating randomized platforms by throwing dice and guiding the blacksmith across the 5 different levels. The main focus of my design process was to balance the game while maintaining playability through randomness.
