The Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk: the Amulet of Chaos (Artefacts Studio)

During my 2 years at Artefacts Studio, I worked as a Gameplay Programer on the Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk.
It is a tactical RPG, turn by turn based, around the universe of the Dungeon of Naheulbeuk (which is originaly an audio saga made by John Lang).
The team used Unity & the C# language to realize this project.

My work on this game touches a lot of things, from the first system for the cinematics at the begining, to more gameplay stuff like the skills & the states.
I also had the chance to come early in the production phase, so I was able to put down some of the architecture for the game, among many things (triggers, skills, states, combat & exploration phases...)

During the 2 years, I worked hand to hand with the design (which was fluctuating a lot), and I had the opportunity to lead 2 interns. I also had to took the lead on the programing team when the true lead was away.
The game is made for the PC, but others version might (or not) come later.

You can get the game here.

QLOOP (LDJam47 ENTRY)

LudumDare 47 entry, on theme "Stuck in a loop".
Developed in 48-50h in a team of 2.

In this little world, your goal is to survive as long as possible.
To succeed, you have to choose 5 actions to loop through until you die.

We wanted to create something with a real customization. Each time you launch the game, you won't play the same as you dide the previous time.

A Dangerous Errand (LDJam46 ENTRY)

For the 46th edition of the Ludum dare, around the theme "Keep it Alive", we decide to represent with humor the period of lockdown.
We made a 2D Shooter in 48h, in which you have to go to the mall in order to get some toilet papers & basic supplies.
During the trip, you will be attacked by different people who are coughing a bit too much, and who can infect you. To stop their cough, you can throw masks at them, and you will be help in the journey by the hydroalcoolic gel & the soap.

Started from scratch with Unity, everything was created by our team (except some graphicals assets).

Call Of Bob Ross (LDJam41 ENTRY)

LudumDare 41 entry, on theme "Combine 2 incompatibles genres".
Developed in 48-50h in a team of 3.

In this FPS painting, you'll try a new method to paint: weapons instead of a pencil.
Kill every bugs you bring on the map (thanks to the divine cube) in order to create the best canvas.

For this game, we wanted to create something really funny. We combine an artistic hobby (painting) with the desire to kill every moving things.

Banana Jam

First Unity game, made in a team of 3.
We start from the famous Roll-a-Ball tutorial of Unity, and convert it in a sort of runner.

The player have to reach the end of the game with a certain number of banana, in order to make a jam.
If he doesn't have the required number, then he have to start from the begining another time to collect missing bananas.

In order to never have the same level between two runs, we add some kind of procedural generation.
