Hello, I am Matthew Powell, a 3D generalist with expertise in gameplay system programming and AI design. I graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2024 with a B.A. in Digital Media – Game Design. My experience spans seven years of passionate involvement in game development as a hobbyist, during which I created a range of portfolio projects as part of my studies and have since continued developing games independently.
During my time at UCF, I contributed to multiple game development projects. Notably, I served as technical designer for Turmoil - a roguelike action game that was developed as a capstone project with KiwiClockwork Studios, a 13-person team. “Turmoil” has been fully released on Steam. Additionally, I developed two other projects under Stemulation Studio: Partisan and Knightborn2D.
Presently, I am working on "Winds of War," an independent medieval strategy game centered on faction-based play, stochastic mechanics, and immersive design.
