Forgetmenots

Forgetmenots is a narrative puzzle game presented like a stage play. Players move through handcrafted scenes where props, lighting, and timing help guide both interaction and pacing.

Gameplay programmer, one of two programmers on the team. I mainly worked on puzzle systems, designer tools, narration and localization, and settings.

• Built modular puzzle systems and triggers with clear state handling, so level logic stayed reliable and easy to work with.
• Created custom inspectors and reusable designer-facing tools to make puzzle setup faster and less error-prone.
• Implemented a narration system with localization support so story content could be updated without scene-specific code changes.
• Built the settings system for common player options and more consistent UX.
• Helped with the Steam release process, including builds, packaging, and getting the project shipped.

• This project taught me a lot about working in a cross-discipline team and keeping development moving under a short deadline.
• I got better at building tools around actual designer needs
• It was also my first time being part of shipping a game to Steam, which gave me practical experience from development to release.
