Project overview:

Responsibilities:

Immediately upon joining the Land & Sea team in March of 2020 I began to work closely with the creative/studio director and senior engineer to continuously monitor and release patches for the 2015 title across iOS, tvOS and macOS devices.

While Alto’s Adventure is a complete project and has been since its original launch, we frequently make improvements to the codebase and player experience, support new target devices and manange tech debt with the ultimate goal of giving the project life for decades to come. Aside from servicing our passionate fanbase, this has the added benefit of making the project a joy to expand upon and support from a development perspective.

My duties on Alto’s Adventure largely relate to continuously optimising our release management process, including improving QA resources and procedures, updating older aspects of the codebase/toolset and onboarding new staff into our development environment.
