Welcome to Yara, a tropical paradise frozen in time. As the dictator of Yara, Anton Castillo is intent on restoring his nation back to its former glory by any means, with his son, Diego, following in his bloody footsteps. Their oppressive rule has ignited a revolution. Play as Dani Rojas, a local Yaran, as you fight alongside a modern-day guerrilla revolution to liberate Yara! Fight against Castillo's regime in the most expansive Far Cry to date, through jungles, beaches, and Esperanza, the capital city of Yara. Employ an arsenal of resolver weapons, backpacks, and vehicles to take down Castillo's ruthless regime.

My work on Far Cry 6 consisted mainly of bug and crash fixing and small features spanning the areas of gameplay ingredients, gameplay systems, game mode logic, physics, weapons and gadgets, vehicles, 3Cs (character, camera, controls), network replication, visual programming in quests and more.

I enjoy learning about graphics programming, so I decided to create Roar: a small amateur Vulkan Rendering Engine. The project is written in C++, leveraging the more recent language features. The engine is loosely built with an Entity-Component-System (ECS) architecture using the EnTT library. Components represent meshes, lights, transforms, cameras, and graphics resources, while model loading, render passes, uniform buffer updates, and camera movement are implemented as systems. The project features a very rudimentary Render Graph which owns the render passes, uses dynamic rendering, automatically creates and destroys attachments and texture resources, and deals with layout transitions. In terms of shading, it features a Physically-Based Rendering (PBR) pipeline with Image-Based Lighting (IBL).
