Hello!

I'm Dean, a gameplay programmer with 8 years experience in software engineering and currently in the game dev industry. I build games in Unity ranging from 2D top down shooters to 3D roguelites with procedurally generated levels.

Projects

About Me I enjoy developing A.I and algorithms for procedural level generation so my games can be as replayable as possible, inspired by games like Age of Empires 2 and Slay the Spire. Participate in Game Jams when I feel like I can sacrifice a weekend or two.

Get to know me!

Hey! It's Dean Isseyegh and I'm a Gameplay Programmer located in London. I've been a software engineer for 8 years and am currently working on developing indie games.

I enjoyed developing in Unity with C#, but have dabbled in Libgdx with Java and Kotlin. Thoroughly enjoy short Game Jams and working in small diverse teams with designers, composers and writers.

My interest in gaming started with Zelda on the N64, and continued with other favourites such as Age of Empires 2 and Super Smash Bros .

Always open to hearing about new opportunities or just discussing games and game dev in general.
