Hi, I’m Bader Obaid, a game developer who loves rapid prototyping, gameplay systems, and creating interactive experiences. I use Unity and C# to turn ideas into playable prototypes fast, always prioritizing game feel, usability, and scalable design. I’ve collaborated with international clients on remote projects, and I bring strong documentation, collaboration, and iterative development to every team I join. When I’m not coding or prototyping, I enjoy refining game concepts, balancing mechanics, and communicating ideas clearly through design docs. I value cross-cultural collaboration and clear feedback loops to deliver solid, playable products on time.
