What I did
I direct and lead development on Farsight, the debut game from Studio Noori. It is a liminal psychological horror game built around the one image everyone half-remembers from the eye exam: the little house on a hill you stare at through the autorefractor. A routine checkup pulls a twelve-year-old into it.
Farsight is built in Unity and I lead engineering on all of it, from the core gameplay to the environments, the encounters, and the systems that keep them in sync.
