About Me

Hi!
I make things, usually with code. You can see a small selection of things I've made down below. I do most of my programming for game modding, and I also participate in game jams (if I remember when they happen!).
My favourite language is Kotlin - I am also proficient in Java, JS, and a few others.

My Projects

Here's a collection of the things I've made or been involved in.

RaycastEngine

Owner, Developer

A game engine with Wolfenstein3D-style rendering, using modern OpenGL. Includes networked multiplayer, quadtree-based collision detection, and loading of custom levels, textures, and game objects from files. Made to be lightweight, data-driven, and modular.

Cursed Legacy API

Development and Triage team member

An effort to create an API for a decade-old version of a game using modern modding technologies. Challenges included having to reverse-engineer and create deobfuscation mappings for obfuscated code, and modifying the game's code with a tool for injecting code into methods on the JVM at runtime.

My most popular project, with over 700000 downloads - a Minecraft Forge and Fabric mod adding upgradable buckets, to make fluid storage and conveyance easier.
