Schell Games

Schell Games, my previous employer, is a full-service game design and development studio located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Austin, Texas. It was founded in 2002 by renowned game designer and author Jesse Schell. Specializing in family-oriented interactive experiences, the studio's work includes console and handheld games, online and Facebook games, virtual worlds, internet-enabled toys, and interactive theme park attractions (including the very popular Toy Story Midway Mania ride at the Disney theme parks).

I started at Schell Games in January 2011 as a Game Engineer Intern and ended as a full Game Engineer before choosing to pursue independent game development. I was a user interface, server, and analytics programmer on the Facebook game BattleBall which was released in April 2011, as well as the online kids game Mechatars which was released in July 2011.
