I began using Unity for my projects in around late high school. I have experience with Construct, GameSalad, and Unreal (particularly Blueprints), and I have a full released project in Godot.<\/p>\n<p>Within my game design work, my main focus is in Augmented Reality\/Mixed Reality work, and with games that use alternate control schemes.
