ABOUT ME


Hi, i’m Niall. Thanks for dropping by. I’m a 3D designer, games and interactive developer based in the north west of Ireland. This site is the home of my personal projects, work in academia and commercial game development work.
I’ve worked on commercial games in various roles from development to 3D modelling & animation, 2D design & animation and UI development. Recently, I’ve been working at Ulster University Office for Digital Learning, developing interactive learning projects and simulations in Unity. I have ongoing interests within academic research for serious games, virtual worlds and virtual reality and have been fortunate enough to do some part-time teaching in game design and Unity development.
I’m always interested in discussing project ideas and general work inquiries and can provide design and technical development services across a range of disciplines in 3D, game development and general interactive multimedia software.
