Yen Chun (James) Huang
I’m a game developer who likes making ideas happen. With engineering behind me and a love of board games, I pay a lot of attention to detail. What I like is making something, then watching how other people react to it.
I'm constantly fascinated by new tech and new ways of interaction. A lot of the time I want to be the first person to see something new actually happen, so I take that work on myself. Breathing as an input, smart shoes, a machine learning .io game bot, combat with audio inputs, and a lot more fun stuff.
