    • Platform Adventures (06 / 2021 - 06 / 2022)

    (Phase 1)
     The project started out as something i wanted to do during the Covid period as due to being bored of online classes. Initially i created a scratch project and thought lets just take some assets, create some basic controls and see where it will take me.
    (Phase 2)
     Later on as days passed by i implemented some more functionality. Then as the project went on further ahead, i dedicated more and more time to it, which is when it became something i thought would be worth publishing on playstore.
    (Phase 3)
     As the project was nearing completion, I was sure that this is something I HAVE TO publish on playstore as my own.
    (Something i feel proud of)
     Now its already live and has complete the first milestone i set for myself which was 500+ downloads.

    • Maze Mayhem (10 / 2023 - 12 / 2023)

    (Phase 1)
     I really wanted to make a 3D game but i didnt really have a strong design idea in mind. So i started out with an Infinite run mode and finihed. Still the game felt like it didnt not have enough content Then somehow(i dont know how) i got an idea of making a maze solving game. The product is ready now :)
    (Phase 2)
     Initially started out with an infinite run mode using a performance friendly approach then started with the maze
    (Phase 3)
     Created the levels for the maze whose layouts are generated using an online maze generator. Since it was holiday season added some holiday themed levels and also collectables that you can collect.
    Live!
     Initially the game had performance issue on 4GB RAM mobile devices but after successfull optimizations, it is full optimized and functional on respective devices.
