Tamar Foster

I am a Quinnipiac University student majoring in computer science and minoring in game design and development. With an ambition for creating software I am eager to apply my creativity, innovation, and time management skills to projects. I enjoy "out of the box" thinking for evaluating complex problems, which assists in my ability to efficiently ameliorate errors in code. I am always ready to jump into the software development life cycle to dedicate myself to long-term projects.

Picture of the prototype.

Click here to expand the image

• "Cruel and Capricious" is the prototype for a board game I designed and implemented.
• Created for my Introduction to Game Design and Development class
• One player acts as a god attempting to destroy a civilization, and the other as Humanity attempting to outlast this god until one of them perishes.
• To the left is an image of the board, the cards and the key for which playing card means what.

One of the core themes of "The Allcalypse": that there is order in chaos, yet chaos in order.

Video example of "Medievirium"

• "Medievirium" is a video game created for my Introducton to Software Development class (SER 225)
• We worked in a team where I provided ideas, gave clear communication, and offered assistance
• Using the foundation of code provided by Alex Thimineur, our professor, I implemented music, mechanics and a few visuals.
• Coded in Java
• Used the agile development cycle.
• The project was long-term, requiring three months to complete.
• Our team utilized the program Trello to plan and assign tasks

• "Animal Crossing: Unfamiliar Waters" was my final project for my Creativity and Computation class (GDD140).
• Coded in Javascript under the p5.js library and website.
• The game puts a creative twist on the usual Animal Crossing formula by being a platformer in a flooded town.
