Freelance Mobile Games Work
Various Titles, iPhone, iPad, Android, (2011-2015)
After graduating from university, I worked as a freelance Game Designer, Artist, and UI Designer. These projects ranged from short self-contained titles to projects which spanned over several years. Due to the smaller nature of these titles, I will combine them into one page, listing the titles and responsibilities with a range of examples.
Due to the age of some of the projects, many are no longer supported on the Apple app store or Google Play. If they are still accessible I will link to their
product pages.
