I build Unity game systems that are designed to last — modular, data-driven, and easy to extend without touching code. My focus: game systems architecture, ScriptableObject-driven design, interactive and gamified experiences. I've taken projects from GDD to final delivery, handling architecture decisions, client communication, and documentation along the way. Published games on Steam. Delivered client projects in Unity. Currently building a new title with an artist. What you get: Clean, scalable architecture from day one Full project ownership — I don't just build features, I think about the whole system Clear communication and documentation throughout EU timezone, fluent English, available for calls I work on projects that ship. If that's what you're building, let's talk.
