Yo!
I'm Vespir, I'm a hyper passionate game and professional tool developer! I love to design and develop experiences that evoke emotions and the tools that help create them.
Background
I'm an independent game developer based in Canton New York in the United States. By day I work on my video game projects as well as an assistant manager at the local 7-Eleven.
I dropped out of college at SUNY Canton due to not getting enough out of their video game development program.
​
I take pride in my ability to work efficiently with tools I already use and tools I'm new to. As well as the quality of my work and ability to work within a team.
For me game development is more than a job; it's a dream. A dream I've had and worked towards since I was little sitting under an oak tree playing Pokémon Blue on my Gameboy.
​
I've also created tutorials for the Godot and Unity engines both for free on my YouTube channel as well as paid client to client.
​
I've worked on many game jam projects both solo and on teams. As well as game development assets/tools for the Godot Engine.
​
While I'm creating my own projects I'm always looking out for a team in need of a programmer filled with passion!

FEATURED PROJECTS!
Dream Dash!!
Dream Dash!! is a premium mobile endless runner experience with no ads or microtransactions that I'm creating as a solo developer.
​
I wrote all the code, painted all the pixels; and composed all the music featured in the game.
​
It's currently entering ALPHA 2.5 which will bring more content and polish to it. The idea was to make an endless runner but build it into an adventure rogue-lite with tons of lore and content.
Introspective
Introspective is a jam game I made for Mini Jam #89 over the course of roughly 16 hours. It's a game that has you running and jumping through the cars of a phantom train leading you into the afterlife.
Each car has a theme in the process of grief and in this case dying.
​
I am building it into a story heavy rogue-lite game that evokes heavy emotions. World and character building is something I take pride in. It's currently in ALPHA 2 which introduced the rogue-lite elements.
Shiba Quest
Shiba Quest is a 3D adventure-platformer inspired by games like The Legend of Zelda and Mario.
It was created for the Godot Wild Jam #32 game jam.
​
The original build was created within a week! I built the game from scratch. I wanted to not only showcase my own skills but also the Godot Engine's power.
It features a playable Shiba Inu that can find a shield and sword. It has 7 playable levels with unique mechanics and obstacles as well as a unique theme for each one!
​
The game was finished and fun to play but I didn't release the build in time for the jam. Instead I wanted to create a better version of it. Lots of life stuff happened right then and the game currently has no playable build.
Stardust Force
Stardust Force was an action-platformer inspired by Mega Man X that me and a few of my friends worked on in college.
​
I was the lead programmer on this project. I also helped with game ideas from levels, to enemies; to characters which one of I did create even though they didn't see playability.
​
With a Summer of work on the game and development going semi-smoothly. The game fell apart due to team communications and eventually cancelled.
Rogue Star
As a passionate and motivated professional, I’m constantly striving to improve my techniques, expand my skillset and find new opportunities to grow. Each of my projects - both solo and collaborative - have provided this growth and allowed me to establish myself within this competitive industry.
