Mid-level Game Designer specializing in narrative-driven AAA experiences
“World of Warcraft quest designer who owned end-to-end quest pipelines and shipped standout content, including the memorable escort/stealth quest “Klaskin’s Great Escape” tuned through playtests and a Dragonflight capstone framing story that drove higher side-quest engagement. Experienced in Lua scripting, reward/economy balancing, and building daily/weekly endgame loops (Beetle Ranch/Rak-Ush), with recent UE5 Avalanche node-based VFX prototyping exposure.”

Junior Game Designer specializing in AI-driven systems and interactive narrative
“Game economy/progression designer who owned an end-to-end multi-currency economy for a top-down kitchen management sim, balancing cash/reputation/XP with sinks like spoilage, maintenance, and rent. Uses telemetry + structured playtests and spreadsheet simulations to tune pacing, reduce mid-game churn, and prevent late-game inflation by adjusting efficiency/skill curves and phase-based balancing.”
Anthony Hernandez
Mid-level Game Designer specializing in systems, balance, and live updates
“Game designer currently leading design on a Mario Party-like party game, owning mode design, economy, and meta-progression. Uses playtests and A/B tests to tune fairness-focused systems (e.g., dynamic power-ups accounting for player standing and turn order) and prototypes quickly in UE5 Blueprints. Previously shipped a mixed-reality version of Knockout League’s Knockout Alley mode for a Quest 3-aligned release.”
Ryan Alemania
Senior Game Designer specializing in game economy, progression, and data-driven systems
“Game economy/progression designer with live-ops experience across MMO, CCG, and F2P strategy titles (ROSE Online, Vega Conflict/KIXEYE). Known for data-driven tuning of loot, currencies, and monetization—e.g., removing a low-performing pay gate drove ~14% DAU lift and improved revenue, and built premium-currency models using real player telemetry to support an ad-to-IAP transition.”
Bobby Sanders
Mid-level Game Designer specializing in systems and gameplay
“Game QA tester/designer hybrid with hands-on Unreal Engine 5 technical debugging experience, focused on NPC AI navigation and performance. At Lantern Tower Games (Telmahre), owned end-to-end quality for an NPC system (dynamic navmesh, moving platforms, EQS, actor pooling), using Unreal Insights and asset reference refactors (hard->soft + async loading) to resolve critical memory/performance issues while collaborating closely with engineering and level design in Scrum.”
