Additional Level Designer

Brace Yourself Games
Remote Freelance

I have made and am still working on a number of DLC charts for the rhythm game Rift of the NecroDancer. It has been a really valuable experience where I've been learning more about the organization to make a game (or DLC in this case) and the communication required when working with a team shipping a game.

I prepared, organized, and then hosted a trivia night based on the French TV show "Le Grand Concours". Players could play with special quiz remotes to answer the questions and qualify for the final rounds. I devised more than 400 trivia questions for it, organized them all into the format of "Le Grand Concours", and then animated the whole evening.
