PROFILE
Tomvarichon
Tom Varichon developed and integrated a range of 3D environment assets and systems for the OutcastsGameStudio/SR repository, focusing on level design, asset optimization, and collision detection. He created modular corridor and sector environments, implemented PBR materials and texture maps, and expanded gameplay areas with new props and interactive elements. Using Unreal Engine and UnrealScript, Tom refined collision hitboxes, optimized asset pipelines, and improved onboarding experiences through tutorial map enhancements. His work emphasized reusable asset structures, performance-conscious integration, and stable version control, resulting in visually consistent, immersive environments and streamlined workflows for both art and design teams throughout the project.
