Work Experience

Second year Game Designer at AIE, Sydney, NSW

February 1, 2025 - April 1, 2025

Completed the full Game Design Document for 'Cementscapes', a parkour maze runner game for PC and Console. I designed the core pillars, core loops, narrative, core mechanics, core systems, economies, music direction, art direction, enemies and gave an overview of each level. I identified the game’s target audience and got the whole document peer reviewed multiple times. This document was written with the intention to direct a team of developers to create the final product without my supervision. It passed the assessment criteria first time.
