EMPATH
Producer | Narrative Lead
April 2018 - May 2019
EMPATH is an action VR brawler with a focus on gesture-based, buttonless gameplay developed for the Oculus Rift in Unreal Engine.
As Producer, I set goals and assign weekly tasks to a team of 30 people, using task assignment software and scrum sheets to make sure we hit important project milestones.
As Narrative Lead, I lead 2 other narrative designers to produce concise, in-character dialogue for the final demo, as well as a sequence of events for designers to follow in level blocking and boss fight design.
Additionally, my responsibilities include:
-
Using Unreal Engine to prototype and test dialogue blocking.
-
Personally handling the task assignment and general management of two departments.
-
Working with two other producers in weekly meetings to calculate project trajectory and set project goals.
-
Managing project documentation and task assignment.
This game has demoed at USC Games Expo 2019 and Indiecade 2019.
