Pong

Attempt at testing basic AI scripting/pathing with a rehash of classic Pong game. You can download a Mac version of the game by clicking here or a Windows version by clicking here.

Blasteroids

A simple recreation of the classic Asteroids style game written using GameMaker Language. Animations and sound produced by myself in an effort to figure out how games and publishing work. If you're the kind of person who downloads software from strangers (and who in 2020 isn't?) you can try a Mac version of the game by clicking here or a Windows version by clicking here.

A webapp to manage your closet. Users can upload and save garments, use them to compose and plan outfits for events, and share them with friends via social media. Includes OpenWeather API that notifies users of weather to plan outfits accordingly, and integrates the UploadCare API to allow users to import garments from URL, device camera, local files, or social media accounts. Composes prepopulated tweets with garment or outfit image page for sharing with friends, because what fun are clothes if you never get to show them off?

Ad site integrating Java EE and MySQL. Allows users to login, post ads for items, as well as browse listings posted by other users. Messaging functionality allows users to communicate with one another to orchestrate exchanges and sales. Also integrates Google Maps to allow for geolocation for items at location defined by users on their profile. It's basically a really cute Craigslist.

Interactive game designed for my daughter to practice her addition and subtraction. Could probably help other preschool age kids, too. Additional functionality may be added as she grows up, so long as my coding skills outpace her math abilities.

Javascript based version of a memory game that in no way resembles what may or may not have been an extremely popular game. Even the name is different!
