Jan 2013 – May 2013 · 4 mos · Austin, TX

• Game development in Unity 3D and Ruby. On the Ruby/server side I separated user management from game logic to allow us to scale game individually and also isolate each game's traffic. I also worked on specialized match-making, in-game messaging, delivery of virtual goods to players, reporting, and other administration tools.
• On the client side I worked on our server communication code, carrying features from the web backend to the client. This saved developer communication cost and complexity, in that I was able to do both the server and client portions of certain features. I also began prototyping a custom level loader for Unity that would not completely block the UI while loading a new level.
