The Task
Capture the visceral urge of elopement and translate it into gameplay where walking feels like an exhausting ritual, not a trivial action. Standard WASD movement failed to convey this emotional weight.My Approach
I designed a mouse-based locomotion system (LMB/RMB for legs) with escalating step thresholds as psychological barriers.The Outcome
After showcasing at indie festivals and gathering feedback on pacing, I refined environmental triggers and animation states. The result is a polished experience where unconventional inputs drive deep narrative empathy.

The Task
Convey the unity and physical exhaustion of Armenian Kochari dance without reducing it to button-mashing. The goal was to make synchronization feel collective, not mechanical.My Approach
I built a rhythm-based «snake» mechanic in Unity where synchronization is key. I programmed the core rhythm-check system, chain logic with angle constraints, and custom timing windows that reward precision over speed.The Outcome
After testing at events, I discovered the original timing was nearly impossible to hit. Based on player feedback, I significantly widened the tolerance windows and refined visual cues.

The Task
Design a catering game where order fulfillment feels like conducting flavors, balancing time pressure with strategic depth.My Approach
I programmed order-generation logic and combo systems rewarding creative pairing. Refined pacing and feedback signals based on player decision-making patterns observed at festivals.The Outcome
The final version offers a tight resource-management loop that respects player intelligence, demonstrating data-driven design and user feedback integration.
