Stunlock's renowned vampire survival RPG, V-Rising, lets you and friends live your gothic horror fantasies. Another project that I worked on as part of Auroch's work-for-hire arm. I was one of the first team members to join the development of the V-Rising console port.

We worked with Stunlock to convert every aspect of V-Rising's signature design to be accessible for a new player base. Developing for consoles provided the unique challenge of adhering to existing design philosophy and mechanics while simultaneously updating them to accommodate a brand new means of playing.

Although I didn't stay on the project for the full duration, I had the nearly-indomitable task of turning a precise mouse-and-keyboard control scheme into a user-friendly and succinct controller layout. Luckily the team I was part of took every challenge in their stride and it's fair to say that the port has been a huge success.

It also happens to be my first official credit in a game (love you V-Rising).
