I’m Alexander Urik, a senior Unity Game Developer specializing in mobile F2P games, editor tooling, monetization, and performance optimization. Over 6+ years I’ve taken projects from concept to launch, designing gameplay systems, tooling pipelines, and scalable architectures while optimizing memory and frame rates for diverse devices.
I’m also a former movie VFX artist and FX TD, which gives me a cross-disciplinary edge. I enjoy leading small teams, mentoring juniors, and building robust pipelines that blend artistry with engineering to deliver polished experiences.
