About me
Hi, I'm Mert! I'm a Software Engineer and Unity (C#) expert. With 5+ years of experience, I've successfully delivered 30+ projects for global clients. I specialize in core game architecture, advanced bug fixing, and custom AI integration. My background includes an AI internship at Microsoft and developing my own indie game, Ceplion (5,000+ Steam wishlists). Whether you need a game built from scratch, smart AI behaviors, or an expert to optimize a messy codebase, I bring professional-grade logic to every gig. Send a message and let's build something great!... Read more
