Tower Defence

This game was first just a simple tower defense game that had a simple rock-paper-scissor mechanic. However, for a research Timo Veenman, Amanda Herders and I worked on automated game design we implemented upgradable towers. But in order to balance the upgrades, we decided to use a simulated annealing algorithm.

About me

Hey! I am Leon a 25 year old Game Developer, graduated at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences. And currently working at Webble Games on the game Havocado. I both program and design games, but I love writing systems for example pathfinding or other algorithms the most. During my career, I have worked on many different games and also some other software. The programming languages which I am most familiar with are Java (including Android), C#, SQL, and recently C++. And I have worked a small bit: PHP and JavaScript. I have worked with different game engines but mostly with Unity.
