- **Lecturer at Université du Québec en Abitibi-Témiscamingue** (2025 – 2025)
- **Web Developer at National Film Board of Canada** (2023 – 2023)
  I was one of the two developers responsible for a mobile web experience as part of the Jeunes Pousses 2023 digital internship. Due to the mobile nature of the experience, optimizing the resources required by the game (images, audio files, and other resources created by Pixi.js) was crucial, and that's where I focused the most. Additionally, multiple mobile devices were tested to ensure compatibility and smooth operation of all interactions.

## Projects

- **Sally** — https://www.lucidtales.coop/sally
  Sally is a life-sim game about community and belonging. Embark on a grand journey aboard a magic flying ship. Navigate daily life as a kid with a diverse crew unique to every game. Craft, cook, farm, build and explore the skies as you become who you want to be amongst your found family.
- **Bloodtoon** — https://marcoux.itch.io/bloodtoon
  In my second semester at UQAT, I was part of a team of 8 people, including 3 artists, 4 designers, and myself as the main developer/technical designer. We had to randomly draw a pop culture character and create a game inspired by it. We got Splatoon’s Inkling, and took the bold decision to replicate the ink mechanic as our main game mechanic, which ended up being quite the technical challenge.
- **Tiny Space Ninja** — https://croustade.itch.io/tiny-space-ninja
  A small game made for GBJam 11 in September 2023. The theme was Space, and we made a game where you use low-gravity to power your movements.
- **DEFECT** — https://emptyvessel.io/games/defect
  DEFECT is a cyberpunk, SWAT sim set in a dystopian world ruled by an AI, The System. Play in Single-player for a deeper offline experience, team up in Co-op, or face off in a new 4v4v4v4 PVP mode featuring dynamic multi-objective, battles with advanced weapons and tech.
- **Fleurones** — https://neuroflowers.nfb.ca
  A mobile game that plants the idea that our minds must flourish in order to blossom, just like a garden. Created for my internship at the NFB.
- **Guano** — https://guanothegame.com
  Our final university project, a game where you play as a delightfully dumb seagull, find food and complete quests to help free the Grand Masters and gain their powers.
