I like making video games! I'm working with team Kill Your Darlings on a bullet heaven rhythm game called Pitchfork Perfect! Check it out: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4612510/Pitchfork_Perfect/ My portfolio: https://www.hourglasseye.com

A photo of the booth for Pitchfork Perfect in Toycon PH 2026. There's a laptop with the game running on it, a tablet playing a gameplay video, some signage challenging players to try and beat the boss, and a whiteboard where we put the name of the last person that beat the boss.
It's a Cyndaquil plushie
The new icon is at the top - a beaked creature with fins on its head. At the bottom, from left to right: a horse with a gem for a horn and eye, and a slime monster.
A slime monster on the left, and a horse with gems for eyes and a gem for it's horn on the right.
The player purchases a "Dig Room" and starts to dig a longer path for the enemies to traverse. The player also puchases a "Dirt Room" so that they can fill in parts of the path to force the enemy to take a longer route.
The player clicks the dungeon entrance on the top left to zoom into it, and then zooms out. Then the player clicks the middle of the map to build a Healing Spring which they then upgrade. Afterwards, the player builds a Stat Roller. They reroll the available stats once, and then they upgrade the Stat Roller thrice. The player then proceeds to pick multiple health upgrades at the expense of other stats.
It's a yin and yang symbol. There are some unfortunate artifacts that I don't know how to deal with yet.
In this video, the player is in the center of the map and is surrounded by enemies. The summons minions around them who then shoot beams of light at the enemies. The enemies attack after the minions move. The rest of the video is the player, the player's minions and the enemies taking turns moving until the enemies are defeated.
A demonstration video of the player's dungeon feature. Each day that passes allows enemies to advance towards the player's room. The camera pans and zooms towards whatever hexagonal tile is being inspected by the player. The player is also able to inspect the members of invading enemy parties.
In the first turn, the player uses a breath attack that reduces their attack by 12 stacks, and applies the damage curse. In the second turn, the player uses a ranged attack to mix the debuff curse into the damage curse - this results in the debuffs getting detonated and dealing damage to the target. In the succeeding turns, the player applies the same strategy until the enemies are defeated.
A list of adjustments that need to be done, quality of life issues that need to be addressed, and bugs to fix.
Keywords are listed on the left, from the top: spread, damage, steal and debuff. On the right are the resulting combinations of each keyword pairing - from the top: spread damage, the word remove with redacted text beside it, spread debuff, detonate debuff, and then steal de-buff.
In the video, the player fires an arrow at an enemy, giving it a lime curse and a poison debuff. Then the player fires another arrow, giving it an attack down debuff and a pink curse. The combination of lime and pink results in a reaction that spreads both poison and attack down debuffs. Then the video demonstrates how the enemies take poison. The rest of the video is just about applying more stacks of poison on the enemies resulting in them taking more damage.
There are six archers surrounding the player. They attack immediately from a correct distance, and approach to get into attacking range. They move away when they're too close to the player. The last part of the video demonstrates the archers kiting the player.
On turn 1 the player applies the pink curse on two enemies. On turn 2 the player applies purple curse on enemies with the pink curse. Mixing the pink and purple curses results in a damage spread effect (damaging multiple targets instead of one). In a different combat encounter, the player hits applies the purple curse with green damage on an armored enemy during turn 1. Green damage is effective against armor. On turn 2, the player applies a purple effect with red damage on the same enemy resulting in the red damage being spread. Red damage isn't very effective. On turn 3, the player applies the pink curse with red damage first, and then on turn 4 the player applies the purple curse with green damage which results on a more effective damage spread against the armored enemies.
The player's character casts a spell that makes meteors fall on the ground to make flowers grow - the flowers are glowing and form the shape of a heart on the ground.
A clip that demonstrates how the Field ability works. An enemy in the area of effect of the Field will take damage. The first part demonstrates a basic setup where it just deals neutral damage. The second part demonstrates a setup with red damage. The third part shows a setup with an additional poison effect applied, and the effect becomes yellow because red and green got combined. The last part shows a setup that also includes a defense reduction debuff.
A video demonstrating a very simple editor for a hexagonal tilemap or grid. It's used for making arbitrary patterns for the areas of effect in the abilities of my game.
