Howdy! I appreciate you sharing your project idea. I want to be upfront with you, my primary background is in Python backend engineering, AI/ML systems, and DevOps, and while I have broad experience across many tech stacks and have shipped several game adjacent products including a real time crash game platform and an eSports cash game system built on Node.js with WebSockets, I do not have direct hands on experience with the Defold game engine specifically. I believe in being honest about that rather than overpromising. That said, if your project has backend needs alongside the Defold client work, such as leaderboards, player data APIs, authentication, real time event handling, or any AI driven features, I would be a strong fit for those layers. I have also picked up new engines and frameworks quickly throughout my career, so if you are open to someone willing to ramp up on Defold while contributing meaningfully from day one on the systems side, I am happy to discuss that arrangement. Thank you. Marcos.

Hello, I'd be interested in learning more about your game project. I have experience with game development, 3D assets, optimization, and gameplay implementation, and I'm comfortable working with low-poly art styles and performance-focused workflows. Defold is a lightweight and efficient engine that works well for small to medium-sized games, especially when targeting multiple platforms. If you already have a game concept, I'd be happy to discuss the gameplay mechanics, scope, art requirements, and technical features to determine the best approach. To provide an accurate estimate, I'd like to know: • The genre of the game • Target platforms (PC, mobile, web, etc.) • Whether multiplayer is required • Approximate map size and gameplay scope • Existing assets or documentation, if any Once I have more details, I can provide a timeline, development plan, and cost estimate. I look forward to hearing more about your project. Best regards
