I am a Unity Game Developer with 7 years of professional Unity development experience, I specialize in building mobile games, multiplayer systems, AR experiences, and 2D/3D games that go beyond the editor, and into the hands of real players. My portfolio includes 4 live published titles on Steam and Google Play Store, delivered end-to-end, from initial architecture to final store submission. I have built games from scratch, stepped into half-finished projects other developers abandoned, and shipped live updates without breaking what was already working. My expertise covers Photon Fusion, Unity Netcode, Mirror, AR Foundation, Firebase, PlayFab, URP, HDRP, and the full Unity toolchain. I plan architecture before writing a single line of code, test under real player conditions, and communicate proactively, no surprises at the deadline. STRENGTHS: ✔ 7+ years of dedicated Unity development across mobile, multiplayer, AR, 2D and 3D ✔ 4 live published games on Steam and Google Play Store, not demos, real products with real players ✔ Full-cycle delivery, concept, architecture, development, publishing, and post-launch support ✔ Multiplayer specialist, systems built and debugged under real player conditions, not just local testing ✔ Project rescue expert, I take over broken or abandoned Unity projects and deliver them ✔ Performance-first approach, optimized for real-world devices, not just high-end test machines ✔ Honest scoping, if something isn't feasible in your timeline or budget, I tell you before starting, not at delivery ✔ Proactive communication, you hear about any issue from me before the deadline, never after SERVICES 📱 Mobile Game Development - Android & iOS End-to-end mobile game development from concept to store launch. Every build is optimized for real-world devices across performance tiers. A visually stunning game running at 40fps on a mid-range Android is a game players actually keep installed. 🕹️ Multiplayer & Networking Photon PUN2, Photon Fusion, Unity Netcode, Mirror, Nakama. Not just integrated, but stress-tested under real player conditions. I've debugged sync issues that only appear at scale, lag spikes that never show in local testing, and master client bugs that break room state in edge cases. This is work I know inside out. 🕶️ AR Game Development AR Foundation, ARCore, ARKit. Interactive augmented reality experiences built for both Android and iOS. Location-based features, image tracking, surface detection, and gameplay mechanics designed to feel natural in the physical world. 🎮 2D & 3D Game Design Complete game design and development across both pipelines. Level design, gameplay mechanics, game architecture, UI/UX, and player progression systems built to retain players beyond the first session. ⚙️ Backend & Live Ops Firebase, PlayFab, Supabase. Player authentication, cloud saves, leaderboards, remote config, analytics, and crash reporting. Everything your game needs to stay alive, scalable, and operational after launch day. 💰 Monetization Integration AdMob, LevelPlay, Unity Ads, In-App Purchases. Integrated and running on live, revenue-generating products. Not just configured and shipped. Actually earning. 🔧 Project Rescue & Optimization Broken multiplayer sync. Abandoned codebases. Performance issues killing retention on mid-range devices. I diagnose, prioritize, and fix without unnecessary rebuilds. If it can be saved, I'll save it. 🖥️ Multi-Platform Publishing Android, iOS, Steam, WebGL, Meta Quest. Full publishing support included. Store setup, app signing, ASO, release management, and post-launch patch support. TECHNOLOGIES Engine & Language - Unity 3D, Unity 2D, C# Multiplayer / Networking - Photon PUN2, Photon Fusion, Unity Netcode, Mirror, Nakama AR / VR / XR - AR Foundation, ARCore, ARKit, Meta Quest, Unity XR Toolkit Backend & Live Ops - Firebase, PlayFab, Supabase Monetization - AdMob, LevelPlay (IronSource), Unity Ads, IAP Graphics & Rendering - URP, HDRP, Shader Graph, VFX Graph, Spine 2D, Particle Systems Platforms - Android, iOS, Steam (PC/Mac), WebGL, Meta Quest Architecture - Object Pooling, MVC/MVP Patterns, Modular Design, ScriptableObjects TOOLS 🛠 Development - Unity Editor, Visual Studio, JetBrains Rider 🛠 Version Control - Git, GitHub, Plastic SCM 🛠 Publishing - Steamworks SDK, Google Play Console, App Store Connect, Meta Developer Hub 🛠 Project Management - Jira, Trello, Notion 🛠 Design & Assets - Figma, Adobe Photoshop 🛠 Analytics & Monitoring - Firebase Console, PlayFab Dashboard, Unity Analytics If you're building a mobile game, launching a multiplayer experience, developing an AR product, or rescuing a Unity project that a previous developer left behind, I'm the developer you're looking for. 📩 Send me a message.
