C++ Lab Book
An exploration of C++ as a language and its relationship with memory and the underlying assembly code.
Henry Paul - Portfolio
I am a recent graduate from the University of Hull
I attained a first class degree in Computer Science for Games Development
Below is my work:
Paul Engine
A custom game engine written in C++ using OpenGL. Still currently in active development. Started initialliy as a port of a simple engine built in C# during university, but has since become so much more than that, far surpassing the original version. The engine supports PBR and non PBR materials with both a forward render pipeline and deferred pipeline. I have also built a custom physics system, AI systems, very very very basic UI systems, and skeletal animation systems. Screenshots can be seen on Github.

An OpenGL, real-time path tracer built with C++ and compute shaders. Still in development. Scenes can be saved and loaded to and from disk, and edited with the Dear ImGui based editor. Adapted from the popular "Ray Tracing in One Weekend" book series.

An easy to use C# based networking library, designed initially for the MonoGame framework but with the flexibility to be used across various C# based engines, built to provide beginner game developers the tools required to build networked multiplayer games in peer-to-peer sessions. The library handles synchronisation of game objects, connection handling / management and diagnostic information. All without requiring any experience of networking from the developer.

Two implementations of an aerosol particle simulation. One in CUDA hosted in a C++ application, another in Rust. Both implementations made use of each languages threading capabilities and performance was compared.

Development of a game in a team of 4 active members. My role in the team was "Lead Programmer" and was responsible for assigning tasks to other programmers, including myself. I also designed and created the larger scale cave level and its puzzles as well as the menu, UI systems and sound design. We created "Toadm'n", a game in which you guide a toad through a 2D level and solve puzzles by controlling flies to make the toad interact with the environment.
