Ege Yilmaz
Gameplay Systems Programmer
My name is Ege,
and I build Gameplay Systems
Currently residing in Chicago, Illinois, I spend my days making unforgettable games. In my projects, I lead large teams by example, through learning new tools and technologies to enhance accessibility and impact across multiple disciplines. My current interests include systems design and architecture as well as a growing passion for Graphics Programming. In my free time, I read rendering/game engine repositories on github and experiemnt with new shaders within my own toy engine.
