Hi, I'm Nellie! I'm a recent Master of Entertainment Technology graduate at Carnegie Mellon University, currently working full-time in tech as a software engineer.
I'm primarily a gameplay programmer and puzzle designer, but I've also contributed to the projects on this site as a producer, game designer, UI/UX designer, and occasional 2D and 3D artist. I especially love creating and playing games with interesting puzzle mechanics and UI systems. I hope you enjoy any games of mine that you try out, and there will be bigger and better things to come!
I plan to post some devlogs and gameplay vids of my work here: https://www.youtube.com/@nelltovdevlogs.
I also write puzzle hunts for Puzzle Hunt CMU: https://puzzlehunt.club.cc.cmu.edu/archive/.
