Kane Adams

Versatile games programmer with 2 years of expertise in Unity, adeptly crafting experiences for various platforms, including mobile and VR. Proficient in Unity and Unreal Engine, grasping Unreal in 8 weeks to develop a compelling game.

My enthusiasm for gaming spans across genres, with a special affinity for first-person shooters. Classics like Empire Earth (2001) and Need for Speed Most Wanted (2005) have left a lasting mark on my gaming journey. I'm captivated by the idea of revitalising the concepts embedded in Empire Earth, leveraging modern technology to breathe new life into this series.

Recently, I've immersed myself in Dungeons and Dragons, enjoying the storytelling and gameplay of chance with friends and university colleagues. Our tabletop adventures have seamlessly woven into our game Mobbers, where abstract versions of our characters take centre stage as formidable bosses.

Beyond traditional gaming, my curiosity extends to niche technologies like eye-tracking and Virtual Reality, exploring their potential applications in gaming. Moreover, I find great delight in brainstorming and planning my own games, from small mechanics that intrigue me to full-fledged game ideas and have expanded to explore ideas in a tight deadline through game jams in both collaborative and solo settings.
