Personal Projects
Here's some things I've worked (mostly) solo on. You can probably tell I like to pursue games in my free time.
(2018) Unnamed Multiplayer Game - Play It!
- Type
- Multiplayer Browser Game
- Length
- Ongoing
- Technologies
- Golang · Preact/MobX · WebGL
- Description
- Ongoing attempt at making a realtime multiplayer HTML5 game. Uses websockets supported by a server written in Go. Uses Buddy and Netlify for CI/CD. Also uses Postgres to store player data!
- Type
- Browser Game
- Length
- 72 Hours
- Technologies
- Playground.js · Canvas

- Made for Ludum Dare 32 Jam. This was my first JS game, and my first major personal JS project.
My lack of sleep led me to implement entirely too much screen shake.
(2018) A Very Bad Resume - See It!
- Type
- Browser Toy?
- Length
- 2 weeks off and on.
- Technologies
- WebGL · Flexbox
- Description
- I wanted to try an make a fancy D&D/retro game inspired online resume. Didn't work out for usability too much, but the background is a big WEbGL canvas which is pretty fun. Also supports printing, changing themes, and a couple other neat features.

Stuff I've Worked On
These are projects I've worked on in paid positions, and are able/allowed to show off!
(2016) Modular Labs - See It!
- Type
- Website
- Length
- 2 Weeks
- Technologies
- Vanilla JS · Canvas
- Description
- Modular Labs required a small, static, unique site. Unfortunately, we were extremely time-constrained so we had to publish a prototype. The prototype is a horrible abuse of client performance. Despite all that, I'm happy with the design and it doesn't even require Javascript to be enabled!
(2017) StrathAyr Turfulator - Use It!
- Type
- Website Fragment
- Length
- 3 Weeks
- Technologies
- Vanilla JS · Google Maps
- Description
- StrathAyr required an embeddable, framework-free wizard to integrate with their WooCommerce platform. Provided the short deadline, I managed to create a rock-solid and easy to use solution. Also features a mildly functional area calculator built on top of Google Maps.
