Hi, welcome to my portfolio! My name is Andrew Sylvester,  I'm a game programmer and recent computer science graduate from The University of Texas at Dallas. I currently work as a developer at a small Unity contracting studio called The Devhouse Agency.

​

During my time in college, I was an active officer of the Student Game Developer Association. I also had the opportunity to be a part of my school's Game Production Lab, a course centered around simulating the industry pipeline and providing the freedom for students to create a game of our choice. For the first two semesters I served as a programmer for the detective game Friday and 3D platformer Jetpack Penguin. For two other semesters, I had the opportunity to serve as the lead programmer on the rouge-lite Drosera and first-person puzzle game Telemancer. Before these projects I have experience extending back to high school with my first major project Operation Tiamat.

​

Outside of school and work, I've spent a lot of time developing my own games. I spent about 6-8 months last year working on a solo project to prototype a custom made first person character controller. The goal was to make a FPS controller that feels as good as possible and to explore many personal favorite movement abilities. Additionally, I've been working with a partner on a puzzle versus game for over a year now.

​

When I'm not enjoying working on games or doing school work you can find me either playing tabletop rpgs with friends or trying to become competitively competent at fighting games.
