About
I’m Steven Gast, a game developer and designer who enjoys building gameplay systems end-to-end—especially in Unreal Engine and other real-time tools. I’ve worked on live-event content, reusable blueprint systems, and combat/weapon systems, and I like turning player ideas into reliable mechanics, UI, and smooth in-game experiences.
I’m also comfortable in a programming-heavy role, collaborating on multiplayer/local co-op functionality and leading gameplay features like wave systems and enemy AI. Beyond development, I bring hands-on design skills with animation state machines, locomotion systems, and motion/character work, and I’m always focused on fixing gameplay bugs and polishing the details that make games feel great.
