I am a Digital Design Class of 2025 graduate from NJIT. I primarily work using Maya, Substance Painter, Houdini and ZBrush. I'm always looking to learn new skills and techniques.
What Lies Beneath
A maintenance worker falls through the drains in the city of Kyiv 20 years after the Chernobyl incident. Now they have to find the key to the exit door to escape the drains. Unfortunately for them, they aren't alone.
My thesis project I made in the duration of my spring 2025 semester. The tunnels and storyline reference the Chernobyl accident and the drain system in the city of Kyiv. There is a monster roaming around that will be talked about in the Character Design section of the website.
Although this is my thesis, I still consider it a work in progress and will continue to update the environment of the game.The game was made using Unity and modeling was done in Maya and Houdini.
The Isolated Woman
The Isolated woman is a fortune teller who predicted the fall of humanity. She attempted to tell people, everyone and everything but no one believed her. To prevent herself from feeling the pain of seeing her loved ones die, she left everything behind, even her name, and ran to the woods and lived there by herself, no one attempted to find the woman that was called crazy, even after her prediction became reality.
After the fall, many lost their lives and those who did survive became mutated, just like the isolated woman.
When the fall first began, a child stumbled upon her in the woods, he was alone so she took him in and cared for him. Unfortunately, his small body could not keep up with the mutations and he passed shortly after giving her a small bracelet that she now carries on her horn.
With the young boy gone, she went back to living in isolation and occasionally visits the boy’s grave.
Melissa the Good Little Pirate
Melissa is a young naive girl who wants nothing more than to travel and explore the seas.
After reading her favorite storybook as a child, Princess Melissa begged and begged the king to allow her to go out to sea until he finally arranged for sailors and knights to take her to sea.
Despite her naivete, she is very good at tactics and seen as a gifted child who does not know what the world holds.
