Verily Fine

Background

I have enjoyed creative work for so long, often spending hours using the level editors in various games. As I learned more about games over the years, it became natural to critique and dissect, but with critique can come dissatisfaction, and a desire to fix things yourself. Such things have driven me to pursue a profession in game creation, and I understand it may not be quick or easy, but I love the process of making games, and I love the end result.

Starting Unity

I started using Unity back in... well it looks like the file dates have been ruined, so I guess I don't really know when, but 2016 seems close enough. I started by making some still unfinished projects. Then I decided to actually finish what I worked on next. I didn't want to set my goals too lofty, so I set my sights on what I thought was the low bar of a mobile game.

Early Assets

Some assets from early on

HUE Trials - Bacteria Adventure

HUE Trials was what I started to create. I wanted to make a game that was actually designed for touchscreen, as opposed to using a virtual gamepad on the screen. At the start there was only the black and white mechanics in the game, but I wasn't satisfied with that for whatever reason, and ended up working on the game for 3 years. It was my goal to make it not feel like a shallow mobile game, and after I was satisfied, I released it on Android. However, nobody seemed to care about it, and it sat stagnate.

Six Shooter - Gun Duel

During that time I made Six Shooter, which was very enjoyable to work on after only doing HUE Trials for so long. Its pseudo pixel art style may make me question my sanity sometimes, but it was fun to work on, and I really like the end result.
