◆ 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
