◆ Briefing

A dreamlike adventure platformer where players traverse drifting airships and crumbling sky-islands. I built the entire stylized rendering pipeline, from painterly materials to the wind-driven cloth and foliage systems.

◆ My Contributions

  • Authored painterly post process and outline pipeline in HLSL
  • Built Niagara VFX library: wind gusts, dust motes, balloon trails
  • Procedural island decoration tooling in Houdini → UE5
  • Optimized GPU cost from 14ms → 6.2ms on console targets
