Hello, I'm Matthew Horrocks,
a Gameplay Engineer with a strong passion for blending art with gameplay mechanics.

Lead creative design and implementation of UI/UX in-game. I also assisted on small gameplay elements.

This was a personal project that I completed for Bigfry's "Game Jam Summit 2022". Your coworker, Michael, is incredibly angry with you for lying on your resume and receiving a promotion. He attempts to prove you're not worthy of the job through various trials and tribulations whilst you work on your Shutters 11 workstation.

This was a personal project that I completed while in-school. The goal, which I hit, was to accurately portray the mechanics of the original Pong.

Software development and content design. I developed new functionality into, documented, and debugged core engine/game code on an existing framework for a library of games.

I lead the development of the UI/UX implementation (MVC) and gameplay elements for the Collector App - which allows users to Customize, order, and interact with their characters, and compete against other players on the leaderboard through completing achievements.

Created a Google-Dinosaur-like game, except you're a cute dragon attempting to evade the desert animals and elements. I created all of the art, music, and programmed all of the gameplay elements (gravity, jumping, end-game, custom collision, etc).

Created a Flappy-Bird like game, except you're a starship avoiding antennas. I created all of the art, music, and programmed all of the gameplay elements (gravity, jumping, end-game, custom collision, etc).

Gameplay systems design, UI/UX design and implementation, and audio/3D asset implementation.

Created an enterprise tooling (deck-builder) application for Wizards of the Coast's Magic The Gathering, called Cauldron.
