Overview
Engage Art is a location based Unity App featuring Augmented Reality content across Canada and United States. As the Lead Developer at Exar Studios, I played a pivotal role in the creative process, ensuring that the content we developed aligned seamlessly with our clients' goals. My responsibilities included collaborating closely with the design and production teams to conceptualize and implement innovative solutions that met and exceeded client expectations.
Ottawa Bank Street AR Murals
This video showcases in-app footage from six AR experiences that I developed, specifically designed for various locations in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I was deeply involved in every aspect of these projects, including client relations, design, coding, and development.
St Thomas Showcase
This video showcases in-app footage from five AR experiences I developed, specifically created for various locations in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada. Ellie the Elephant, the tour guide, pays tribute to the region's history with Jumbo the Elephant. I was deeply involved in all aspects of these projects, including client relations, design, coding, and development.
Cosmetics
This video showcases the cosmetic selection system I implemented on the companion page. The companion is utilized in the quickplay arcade and multiplayer AR games featured in the app.
In App Monetization || Game Economy
This video demonstrates the in-app purchasing feature I implemented. In it, I navigate to the currency store page and purchase a coin bundle using our premium gem currency via PlayFab.
UI Navigation & Map Navigation
In this video, all the UI was programmed and implemented by me. I navigate through the app's main home page, exploring the Outings section (which groups content that is geographically close) and the experiences section. After entering an outing page, I select one of the available experiences to view its information page. I then click "Show Route," transitioning to the map view—a feature I developed—which reveals the path to the location-based experience using real-world navigation and directions.
