Meditation 1
Description
The opening six pages of our 60+ page script from our upcoming game 2D & 3D narrative adventure game Courier: Dragons Within. The player controls a cursor through a top-down 2D labyrinth as they navigate Chase's mind during his meditation.
I implemented this scene in-engine, along with the rest of the game's dialogue. I also performed the voice acting for our player character Chase.

Sestina for a Millennium
Description
A poem in Sestina form. A reflection on space, time, posterity, and the vastness of love. One of ten from a poetry sequence titled Boy in the Maze. Inspired by Dylan Thomas's Do not go gentle into that good night.
