The Salad Bowl

The Salad Bowl is a single-player, 3D movement combat game. You play as an imprisoned hibachi chef named Butch who has been captured by the evil King Julius Caesar Salad. The King forces Butch to feed his pet, an insatiably hungry beast, by quickly killing living ingredients and skilfully throwing them into its mouth. If you don’t feed the beast quickly enough, the king will make you its next meal.

Systems Programming

Our team built this game around an endless round system that let players hone their skills and chase a high score. As systems programmer, I designed a balanced, exponentially scaling, round-based difficulty curve that pushed players to constantly optimize their movement to survive.
