I founded CityChaser game studio during my graduate study. I am responsible for both design and development. As a game studio, CityChaser is developing a mobile game called Kyronus 開拓者. The game focuses on promoting Taiwan's characteristic buildings, providing a game experience connected to the real world. This work won the third place in the 2020 Get Wild Award, Mobile Game Creation Group. The game is currently preparing to release.

In this experience, I learned how to run agile development, quickly iterate the product. In addition, I also learned how to lead the team to collaborate across departments and accelerate the development process between designers and engineers.

Responsibilities in development part: 

• As the product owner and plan the product backlog
• Use Vue framework to build web front-end with three other engineers
• Use third party kit in hybrid app, like admob, In-App-Purchase, FB/Google login, etc.
• Connect APIs in collaboration with backend engineers
• Implement the game scene, sprites control and game animation
• Image packing and performance optimizing

Responsibilities in design part: 

In the past, I used web tech to develop web apps and then converted them into hybrid apps with other frameworks. However, this approach has other technical limitations such
as efficiency issues.

Therefore, I use my off-hours to participate in the iOS course and learn native iOS app development technology. During this period, four apps and many small works were developed. These works are all recorded on my medium.

I use my free time to provide design services. More than 80% of clients are repeat customers.

Case types: 

• UI design: both web and app
• Motion design: animation, film editing
• Graphic design: logo, poster, DM, banner...
• Product design: mechanism, appearance, 3D modeling
