Bio
Chirag Ramchandani
I have nothing but AMAZING things to say about Raunak, he is the full package. Great game design sensibilities, crisp and clear communication, coupled with an unparalleled drive to learn and be better! The one thing I appreciated the most about working with Raunak was his desire to help anyone and everyone. He took out the time to help everyone on the team, he never hestited to shared his know how with others and he ensured his learnings were distilled and passed on to those around him. He was my 'fire and forget missile' when I needed something done and I have no doubt he will go on to craft great games and experiences for players.

Project Lead / Technical Designer

Aug 2018 - Jun 2019
I was the project lead and the sole technical designer on the project. I designed 50+ unique cards, managed planning and task tracking, designed the metrics for collecting data from play tests, and was responsible for game balance. On the implementation front, I was responsible for the implementation of the Main Menu, the Over-world interactions, and procedural deck construction. This game will be released on both Steam and the Google Play Store by February. I was the project lead and the sole technical designer on the project.
