Age of Darkness is a VR RPG in which you must save a medieval town from an evil dragon that has been terrorizing the land. It was developed in Unity using the Steam VR API and won the Games Design category in a local competition (ask for reference). The player's journey begins in a medieval village terrorized by a multitude of different terrifying enemies that are led by a fearsome dragon. The player can converse with NPCs around the village by simply shaking their hand and receive quests through the games questing system. They can cast spells using gesture recognition with the wand, fight multiple monsters in real-time combat using the trajectory predicting bow and the infamous Sword of Light that the prophecy foretold of. The player must increase the power of the Sword of Light using the souls of enemies until they can raise an army against the dragon and eventually potentially save the village.

World of Creatures was originally made in 2017 for a local competition where it won the competition overall. It is currently being redeveloped from scratch in Unity with a new storyline, original soundtrack and completely new art and you should hear more of this soon.

For an educational showcase evening I was tasked with creating a short interactive demo for potential students so I recreated the basics of Minecraft in virtual reality using the Steam VR API in Unity. It features a basic inventory system, physics, movement and mining.

I built a neural network that learned to aim on the popular rhythm game osu! using Python and Keras with Tensorflow. The project quickly became a success after being livestreamed on twitch and within 30 days it had gained over 150,000 views.

Using Python I created a decision tree based Artificial Intelligence that learns by itself, with about 10 minutes of training it becomes unbeatable meaning it is only possible to lose or draw to this bot as it makes perfect decisions. These decisions are based on thousands of games that it has played with itself in order to slowly improve.

Using Unity and C# I created a bot that learns to play a 3D version of Pac-Man that I created. It was inspired by this video and after several hours of training it became better than me at the game.

Using Python I created a decision tree based Artificial Intelligence that learns by itself to play Connect 4. I left this training for several days until the model size was several gigabytes big, this was due to the vast number of possible outcomes in Connect 4. By this time the bot had become moderately good at Connect 4 but was not perfect as it had not been training for long enough. The entire event was streamed at Twitch for viewers to watch.

Alice is a voice controlled AI that I created using Python, a Rasperry Pi and some programmable LED lights. The AI is always listening and wakes when hearing "Alice" to respond to many commands that mostly control the lighting in my room. This means I can say "Alice lights rainbow" for a cool RGB rainbow theme in my room. The bot also interacts with my computer through a web server so that I can send commands from a python terminal on my computer or Alice can control specific elements on my computer like applications open or turn itself off.

Inspired by the likes of TwitchPlaysPokemon I created a python program that listens to my twitch chat and interprets commands like "A" or "Right 5" in order to play Dragon Quest IX through the desmume emulator. The twitch chat ended up surprisingly getting quite far into the game and it was cool to see a small community work together like that.

For work experience, I created a responsive, dynamic web app whereby clients can input information to be displayed on the host machine using PHP. This is used by Vivid Creative and includes both a client and server website along with a customisable JSON options file and their unique branding.

After being challenged by my friend to beat him at donttap.com and failing substantially I loaded up Python and set up a bot that automatically detected where the black tiles were on screen in order to click them. After a lot of optimisation I ended up reaching a high score of 2511 which was by far the highest I had seen any body (or bot) get on the game and definitely my friend.
