The Witcher: Ties of Destiny

Engine Programmer / Gameplay Programmer / VFX Lead / QA Tester

Team Size: 29          Date: February 2020 – June 2020

The Witcher: Ties of Destiny is a 2 Player Coop Hack n Slash game, based on The Witcher Series, where you will play as Geralt and Jaskier to defeat all enemies that dare to face you. Developed by Broken Gem Studios with our own OpenGL Game Engine coded from scratch in C++.

I was in charge of implementing the Physics in the Engine while creating some tools needed for the game programmers. Also, I managed the VFX team creating all particles needed for the game, making some by my own for the enemies, bosses, characters, and environment. As gameplay programmer, I coded in Lua the breakable props and droppable chests, the final credits scene, and done several QA test sessions during the development of the game.
