[Closed] The_Sink - Scripter with 5+ Years Experience

Note: I am not currently looking for work. I’ll update my portfolio when I become available again!

About Me

Hey! I’m The_Sink, a programmer and UI designer that has been on the platform since 2012. I’ve been writing code in Lua off-and-on over the past 5 years and am also familiar with JavaScript/Node.js for various off-platform services. I also do building/modelling, UI, and sound design work, but I’m currently not offering these services.

Showcase

Most of my work over the past few years has been consolidated on the Cobalt Valley Research Facility. I am a lead developer at JKR Productions, the group that develops this game, and is mostly the reason I’m not looking for major work right now. The game includes player data saving, a functional tram system, localized fire spread, an in-depth admin system (available to private server owners), interactive labs, and a bunch more.

I was also the sole developer of another, slightly sillier project at JKR, The Infinite Tunnel. It was made as an April Fools’ joke and has been inadvertently serving as a source of funds for CVRF’s development (woohoo?). The game generates an infinite tunnel where you can theoretically travel however far down the tunnel you’d like. Although unfortunately, character control and collisions begin to drastically break down after going 1 million studs out. Tools and explosive barrels also spawn along the way, and a “farthest distance” leaderboard is available at spawn.

Finally, I was working on a Super Monkey Ball-type of single player arcade game back in mid-2020 but later discontinued it due to a difficulty in designing fun levels for it. There’s not much, but it incorporates some slightly more advanced practices and game functionality (such as a “rewind” system after completing a level, and an extensible library for creating moving, tweened platforms that players can safely stand on top of and move with).

Side-note: I’d love to continue this project. If anyone has a bit more creative skill in designing levels for games like this and has an interest in helping out, please contact me!

Availability

My availability varies, but I am online most of the day (preferably later at night, around 5PM - 10PM PDT) during the summer months. Feel free to contact me at any time and I’ll respond as soon as I can. I cannot guarantee I’ll be available to work on a project, but I’ll try my best to set aside time for requests I’m sent.

Payment

Payment is negotiable. I prefer to be paid on a per-asset or per-system basis, and payment depends on how complex and time-consuming that system is. My rates start at around 1,000 :robux_light: and can be discussed/negotiated.

Contact

You can contact me via Discord at The_Sink#4096, or alternatively here on the Developer Forum.

Thanks for reading!
