I'm programmer interested in game development and programming in general. I currently work at PixelAnt Games, as Software Engineer. Also I'm a lecturer at AGH University of Science and Technology in Kraków, where I teach game development. I graduated from AGH University of Science and Technology in Cracow, in Computer Science (MSc and BSc). I'm interested in history of gaming and I do many interesting things ;) .

Side-projects & selected talks
Game Industry Conference 2020 talk - Determinism in game programming
From conference site:
Have you ever spotted inconsistent game behaviour on different devices? Are you tired of sending a lot of data to keep your multiplayer game state in sync? Or maybe you have wondered about a simple replay system? This talk focuses on the importance of determinism in game simulation - what is it, when it is useful, and how to solve mentioned problems with this simple concept. Additionally we will talk about problems in applying this kind of solution into our game.
Reaper Repair (2020)
Our entry for Global Game Jam 2020 (KrakJam). Simple typing game, where you're a repairer of reapers. Made with a teammate - Miss Scraps
FireVR Sim
FireVR Sim is a prototype of firefighting educational simulator where we are a firefighter in 3 scenarios:
- fire in the barn
- entering into the building
- car accident
Application works with Google Cardboard (VR mode), and normal displays (non-VR mode, without gyroscope).
It's a prototype, developed as a master thesis("User-centered design for a low-cost firefighting simulator using virtual reality"). Made with Unity, available on Google Play.
Game Industry Conference 2018 talk - Designing a simulator for firefighters with low-cost VR
In October 2018 I gave a talk at Game Industry Conference in Poznań about my master's thesis outcome. Mainly I was focused on design and UX issues and attempts to solve them.
Catpetition (2018)
Our Slavic Game Jam 2018 entry, the theme was "competition". Developed in team of 3 devs. Game is a co-op platformer, where you have to cooperate with you teammate to defend angry chicken. Made with Unity.
EDUGAME platform (2017-2018)
My enginneers' thesis - "Educational Game Framework".
Simple game engine wrapper built on top of libGDX (Java game engine), where you can make visual novels with player movement. User has only to edit configuration files (in JSON,over 70 parameters to change) to make another game.
Also user can export whole project to Android OS.
Made by 3 developers.
YouTube demo #1 - education game about chatting with strangers
YouTube demo #2 - our "Makbet" interpretation as simple visual novel
Pixel Beer Fever (2017)
This is a little game, which was originally entry for #LOWREZJAM 2016 game jam. After jam I spend some time to finish it, and as effect I published it in Google Play.
