During this role, I worked on four unique vertical slices as well as partaking in the entire development lifecycle of Yooka Replaylee.

The vertical slices I worked on each had varied art and gameplay styles, ranging from using Zbrush for high-definition, sculpted styles, to creating simple models and textures for a cleaner look.

By working on Yooka Replaylee, I experienced the full game development pipeline; from the testing of different model and texture styles to the final stage of troubleshooting bugs to ensure the project could reach its full potential.
