Game Developer & 3D Artist | Unreal, Unity, Roblox | Character Rigging

I help studios, startups, and creators build high-quality games, mobile apps, and Web3 experiences, from prototypes and vertical slices to full-scale commercial releases. I specialize in Unreal Engine, Unity, and Roblox development, helping teams build engaging gameplay, multiplayer experiences, immersive worlds, and polished game visuals. From engineering complex gameplay systems to delivering game art, animation, cinematics, and technical architecture, I focus on creating production-ready games that are built to scale. What I can help you with: - Full-cycle game development (prototype to launch) - Unreal Engine, Unity, and Roblox development - Multiplayer systems and online gameplay - Gameplay mechanics and core systems design - Game art, character assets, and environment creation - 3D modeling, texturing, and asset optimization - Character rigging and animation (Blender, Maya, ZBrush) - Cinematics and Unreal Engine Sequencer - Cross-platform mobile app development (Flutter, iOS, Android) - Blockchain and Web3 game integration, including NFT systems, smart contracts, wallet connectivity, marketplace and token economy design - UI/UX implementation and interactive experiences - AR/VR experiences and interactive simulations - Performance optimization for PC, mobile, console, VR, and Roblox - Live project support, debugging, and feature expansion - Technical planning and production guidance Over the years, I've worked on multiplayer games, simulations, arcade experiences, mobile titles, VR applications, Roblox experiences, blockchain/NFT platforms, and interactive products, contributing to everything from gameplay programming and multiplayer architecture to art production, animation workflows, mobile app delivery, and technical problem-solving. My goal is always the same: deliver high-quality, production-ready solutions that scale with your project. Clients work with me because I provide: - Clear communication and realistic expectations - Practical solutions instead of unnecessary complexity - Fast iteration while maintaining high quality - A strong focus on shipping stable, production-ready builds - Long-term maintainability and scalable architecture For larger productions, I lead and work alongside an experienced development team at Carina Softlabs capable of supporting every stage of production, including concept art, 2D/3D art, character modeling, environment creation, animation, rigging, cinematics, mobile app development, blockchain/smart contract engineering, UI/UX, VFX, QA, and specialized engineering. This allows clients to scale from individual features to complete game, app, or Web3 production while working with a single, reliable technical partner. Our team has delivered live mobile apps in EdTech, health, and entertainment, and Web3/blockchain platforms including NFT marketplaces and play-to-earn economies, alongside our core game development work. Whether you're building a new game, a mobile app, a blockchain-based product, expanding an existing title, or assembling a dedicated team to bring your vision to life, I can help move your project from idea to successful release.
