Summary
Technical Artist bridging art and engineering across Unity and Unreal Engine —
real-time VFX, shaders, and rendering solutions for mobile and PC games. Worked across four
shipped/released FitNot Games projects (one Steam title, three mobile), plus VFX and shader work
at Landell Games and UMAMI E-Learning. Known for solving problems tools don't yet exist for —
building the Sprite Sheet Creator after a studio effect was called out of scope for existing
workflows. Founder of Infinity Games Studio, where I'm building Tech Art OS, a
production suite unifying tooling, a custom rendering engine, and a technical art learning hub.
Experience
Technical VFX Artist
Oct 2025 – Present
FitNot Games
Cairo, Egypt
- Sole Technical Artist across FitNot's four titles — one Steam release
(Ali) and three mobile games shipped on Play Store and the App Store —
handling shaders, VFX, and lighting integration.
- Built and shipped the Sprite Sheet Creator after an effect was flagged
out of scope for the animator's existing workflow — automated the
frame-sequence-to-atlas process, iterating from an early non-uniform packing pass into
clean power-of-two sprite sheets.
- Diagnosed and fixed a Spine/URP 2D lighting incompatibility (Sprite-Default vs.
Sprite-Lit-Default), implementing a script-driven workaround so Spine characters
correctly respond to 2D global lighting.

(Sprite & Atlas Packer, SpineFlow 2D rigging — in progress, DCC bridges, asset QA),
a technical art learning hub, and a custom rendering engine.
- LAEEB Engine — a renderer built from scratch in modern OpenGL
(VAO/VBO/EBO architecture, GLSL shaders, MVP matrix transforms) to understand rendering
at the graphics-API level.
- Designing and building Arena: Saha, an original multiplayer game in
Unreal Engine 5 grounded in Islamic cosmology and Arabic culture, currently in
pre-production toward a 60-day MVP.
