> Well, hello there

I'm Tom Evangelou! I'm a driven programmer who loves learning and tinkering with everything game dev! At the moment I'm working on a game in a custom C++/OpenGL driven game engine! Aside from that, I'm tinkering with Vulkan on the side. Here I've got a selection of work I am most proud of, along with blog posts and devlogs talking about my experience working on them.

Show me more!

Custom Game Engine and RTS Game (Mall or Nothing) (C++)

Since moving to Programming from Game Design, I had a goal of developing and rolling my own tech stack for a game project. This was affectionately known to me and my friends as 'Bustom Bengine,' and has developed into one of the largest projects I have worked on, and one of my proudest pieces of work. Now, for my final project at AIE, I have been given the chance to use it to develop an RTS!
- Graphics (3D, 2D, OpenGL)
- Engine Development
- Tooling

Vulkan Rendering Engine (C++)

Following my exploration of OpenGL last year, I wanted to learn more about everything rendering. Vulkan seemed the best way to do it. Check out some footage!
- Graphics (3D, 2D)
- Engine Development

A quick showoff of what I got working!

Vertex Animation Textures (C++)

I dove into creating (programmatically) and implementing Vertex Animation Textures for use in games! This was inspired by discussions of optimisations for Real-Time Strategy games with mass amounts of animated units.
- Tool Design
- Animation
- Alternative Graphics Techniques

All about these!

"Totally Not Peggle" - a custom physics simulation (C++)

Custom physics simulation that features a small, game-like testing environment inspired by Peggle! Built on top of "Line Renderer," a library provided by my trainer.
- Collision Algorithms (SAT)
- Engine Design
- Physics Implementation
