StatusActive Linkhytale.com

Hytale is a sandbox game under development at Hypixel Studios , where I’m currently employed as a software engineer working primarily on the technology we use to create and drive NPCs in the game. You can read more about the game on the official blog .

It’s built on a proprietery voxel engine developed in-house using Flecs , a C/C++ ECS library. If you’d like to read more about the tech, you can find links to the official technical posts below.

About me

I'm Rick, a UK-based developer whose professional experience began with full-stack web development in the late 2000s. I grew up in a household of nerds, which exposed me to computers, consoles, and games from a very early age. I was always curious about how game development works and eventually found my way into the games industry in 2019, where I currently work as a full time software engineer.

Since 2019, I've spent much of my leisure time learning more about all facets of game development as well as programming in general. I occasionally post about those topics here.
