Additional Games
Rogue of Cards
September 30th to October 2nd 2023
Rogue of Cards is a game developed during the 54th Ludum Dare Game jam. I did this jam solo and the theme was “Limited space”.
Rogue of cards is a top-down puzzle game in which you play a rogue trying to steal a treasure in a chest.
Use the cards you gather to perform diverse actions like pass through walls or destroy them!
I’ve tried to fit the theme by creating a limited spaced grid, and a limited amount of card you can gather at the same time, I’ve also wanted to reinforce this idea of limitation by restricting the order of usage of the card you have.
The game is playable on browser,

Zaria
April 13th to April 15th 2019
Zaria is a game developed during the Ubisoft Game Challenge 2019 in Montpellier. The theme was « Poupée Russe ». The goal of the competition was to create a game under 72h. This game has been ranked 3rd out of 10.
This game is a musical-memory runner game. The goal is to get to the end of the level without hitting the obstacles more than 2 times. The trick is that the obstacles are each associated with a certain sound in the music of the game, they will appear in front of you faster and faster, and you will have to guess by listening to the music which obstacle will appear in order to be able to avoid it.
For this project, I was in charge of the prototyping, some VFX’s and of the writing of specific shaders.
We was a team of 12 persons during 72h, it was the first time I’ve worked with more than ten people.

Doppelgangers is a game developed during the GMTK jam 2020 in 48h, it was my first time doing game jam solo.
This game is a physic based pinball game in which the goal is to destroy all the bouncy white spheres with the little shiny spheres. The player can interact with those spheres by clicking on its desired location on screen to push or attract them.
The theme of the jam was “Out of Control”. I’ve chosen to take the quote literally and give the player a limited amount of inputs for each stage.
For this jam, I wanted to challenge myself by making a game with simple mechanics and not much code to create, in order to focus on make it the more juicy and satisfying to play as possible.

The player can also dash and attack in front of them with a sword.

The challenge with this production was that I was teaching my teammate the basics of programming at the same time, and make him program the scenes transitions and the camera behaviour.
