About Me

Hello, I am Zachery Dyer, but I usually go by Zac.

I started programming in 2022, in my first year of game design at AIE

After that I switched over to AIE’s game programming course because I felt I could present my skills as a game designer in a better fashion if I knew how to program, and so I set out to work towards becoming a technical / system designer alongside programming.

I have worked both in Unity and Unreal Engine 5 using C#, C++ and Unreal Engine blueprints.

During my time at AIE I got the opportunity to work alongside other students consisting of programmers, designers and artists on small team projects:

No Strings Attached
Panopticon
ScrapLoad
