My name is Victoria, and I am a Unity Developer with over 5 years of hands-on experience building high-quality, well-optimized games for Android, iOS, PC, and WebGL. I work as an independent specialist, and when needed, I collaborate with a small, trusted team. This allows me to deliver full-cycle game development from idea and prototyping to release, post-launch support, and scaling. I am not an agency, which means direct communication, fast decision-making, and no unnecessary overhead. I work both with small MVPs and prototypes as well as full-scale commercial projects. I can develop games from scratch or join existing projects to improve performance, expand features, refactor code, and help bring the product to a successful release.

I offer flexible collaboration models, competitive pricing, and studio-level quality with a personal, hands-on approach. 💡 If you have a game idea, an existing project, or need help with development, optimization, art, testing, or playable ads I’d be happy to discuss and help bring your project to life.
