My first game engine designed and developed by myself from the scratch throughout the whole semester. This game engine is based on SFML as the graphic interface, and 0MQ to support the server-client connection. The Game engine includes all the basic funtionalities including Component based GameObjects, Multiplayer ablities, mutli-threaded processing, EventSytsem, Double Timeline supports and Duktape/Dukglue Scripting abilities. I have used this Game Engine to developed two games, one is a 2D platformer and the second one is the Space Invader.

Circulation is an interactive virtual environment that allows an individual to accentuates our emotional connections with nature and visualize the reactions to our presence. I developed this project in a team with students from the Art and Design department at NC State University. We learn and used Unity and C# to script our interactive environment and used Maya to model and animate the animals in the environment. We also earned the honor to make to the annual game showcase at NC State University.

Paint War is a game that allows two players to catch and bounce paintballs to each other, and if the ball splashed on the edge of the screen with enough amount, the other side wins. This is a team project with Master students from the Art and Design Department, and this is my first game developed using Unity Engine. We learned and used particle system built inside the engine and developed the mechanics using scripts.

This is a machinima Project using Unity Engine. I worked this project with another student in the Art and Design Design department. Based on the true story of the infamous Zodiac Killer, we developed a imaginary scene that as a reporter(first-person-view), you accidentally ran into a suspicious house that might related to the zodiac killer. As you explored the house, you starts to discover the strangeness of the house.
