The New NicholasNasibyan.com
Here's my description of what i've done!
The New NicholasNasibyan.com
Working directly with a client to create their vision was an experience that taught me a lot about web development. NicholasNasibyan.com is a product of a joint effort between myself and Nicholas Nasibyan of Erie, Pennsylvania, an up and coming professional pianist. The website features a dynamic backend written in PHP with a login system the Nicholas can use to log in and edit his website in the browser.

Marble Run
A game that I developed in Unity for a Game Development Final Project. Marble run uses the Unity Physics engine to create a fully featured marble rolling adventure. The game even has a reasonable difficulty curve, sound and visual effects, as well scaling game mechanics that culminate in an all inclusive final level.

Unity Technical Demonstration - Winter Wonderland
A small, playable demo of a man living inside of a snowy mountaintop. It was my goal to make this scene as aesthetically pleasing as possible, with particle effects and texturing that create a realistic, snowy environment.

Solitaire - In the Console!
This is one of my first projects, from Freshman year. A fully functioning and winnable version of Solitaire, entirely in the console. The program has a "gui" in the console, and even has a rudimentary help system for players to learn the game.
