During my internship at Little Chicken I worked in a team on the pilot of this serious game for Kenteq. This game encourages students to learn about machines in a workshop and how to use them. Components built in the workshop are needed for certain track pieces which are then usable to create exhilarating roller coasters.

My school required a clearly defined research project for my graduation. I set out to research and design a system which would simplify persistence and restoration of game state in Unity games for game developers. The first iteration of this system was successfully integrated into this game. The system was later polished for robustness and a larger feature set. It is likely to be used again in future projects.

Besides this I also worked on parts of the back-end communication with a server, GUI implementation, etc.
