I build Games.
Hi, I'm Luke Taylor a programmer with a love and passion for games from the UK. I have a deep knowledge of C# and C++ and game engines such as Unity and Unreal Engine. I have a strong passion for PCG and low level systems and am always looking to improve my skills and knowledge. I love a good problem to solve and am always up for a challenge to push past my limits. I have just graduated from my three year course at Staffordshire University studying Games Programming.

A 2D Unity tool that generates dynamic dungeon layouts via agent-based PCG and furnishes interiors using constraint-based placement.
An OpenGL application benchmarking low-level performance techniques, cutting physics update time from 250.5ms to 1.9ms across 8,000 colliding objects.
A top-down 2D multiplayer asteroids game built with C# and MonoGame, featuring client-server networking over TCP/UDP.
An interactive VR experience built in Unity with SteamVR for the Valve Index, featuring physics-driven minigames in a low-poly environment.
A 2D wave-based game built with C++ and SDL2 for the Evercade handheld, cross-compiled via a Docker-based toolchain.
A farming roguelike game built with Unity - Currently in development.
Games Programming Student
Enrolled in Staffordshire University to study Games Programming at one of the best universities in the UK for games development.
