ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm James.

I specialize as a games programmer, but also have a strong adaptability to programming general applications such as WinForms and editor tools for the Unity game engine. I also have recently worked on propriety tools built for Unreal Engine, specifically fixing bugs that occurred at runtime on the Nintendo Switch.

I've been programming for about seven years with a high proficiency in C# (seven years) and C++ (five years) as a student, hobbyist and as a professional working for Krome Studios for the past four years as a games programmer. Since joining Krome Studios, I have worked on three shipped mobile titles (Monster Dash, Grand Slam Superstar, Yahtzee Slots) and two Nintendo Switch titles (Ty The Tasmanian Tiger 4, Hogwarts Legacy) which can all be viewed in my professional gallery below.

I have a strong aptitude for designing game AI systems. I also love learning new techniques and taking on challenges, from writing my own C++ engine to developing a fan remake of the Simpsons Hit & Run that has networked multiplayer (which I'll hopefully start talking about soon).

I'm constantly seeking opportunities to build experience in professional development team environments. I believe good communication with non-programmers, and conveying to them how systems work under the hood, is a very important soft skill to develop.
