Hi, I'm Murat
Nearly three years building Unity mobile games across studios, shipping on iOS and Android. I write gameplay, UI and systems code, profile and optimize on real low-end hardware, and bring AI tooling — Claude Code + MCP — into the workflow wherever it earns its place.
Selected work
Six projects worth starting with — media on one side, the story on the other.
A long-term tower-defense / strategy mobile title built in a two-engineer team. I shipped gameplay, live-event modules and UI in an in-house MVVM framework — and optimized low-end rendering from 25–30 to 50+ FPS.

A minimalist real-time strategy game for Brackeys Game Jam 2024.2 — capture hexes, produce units and defend the kingdom, Age of Empires meets capture-the-tower.
Play on itch.io →A visual-novel Unity game for language learning, co-founded with a five-person student team. It takes a different teaching approach than existing apps, pairing narrative with the core learning loop.
A compact bullet-hell where you defend the heart of a forest against waves of corrupted spirits — built for Pirate Software Game Jam 15. The design goal was readability under chaos.

A celestial clicker where you destroy planets click by click — ranked 39th of 161 in Mini Jame Gam #31. An exercise in escalating, juicy feedback loops.

Systems
Performance, tooling and gameplay systems from studio work — with the numbers.
Raised frame-rate from 25–30 to 50+ FPS using the SRP Batcher and dynamic/static/UI batching — eliminating thermal throttling and overheating.
Diagnosed and resolved GPU-related ANR crashes affecting 1% of players, raising crash-free users above 99%.
Built a Claude Code + MCP workflow, running parallel sessions across two projects to port, refactor and cross-validate gameplay systems.
Architected a level editor for a competitive, score-based block-breaking title, collaborating with designers and artists on combat.
Implemented UI systems and gameplay logic in an in-house MVVM framework, translating Figma designs into in-game interfaces.
Integrated in-app purchase systems and first-time-user-experience flows, supporting monetization and player onboarding.
Professional works
