Greetings, this is the (WIP) portfolio (WIP) of

Yong Khang.

I'm a Game Designer

… with over 6 years of experience in designing games on various platforms. In my free time I also dabble in various hobbies such as homelab, bass guitar, privacy and password security, or simply games / anime / manga / YouTube.

With that said, this is a newly registered domain name, please check your Spam box if you’re expecting a reply from me 🙏🙏🙏 GMail and Outlook can be pretty aggressive on blocking <180 days old domains.

Btw switching to another template + modifying the html / css just a little bit so it’ll be a few days until the next update

About Me

I am a Senior Game Designer with over 6 years of experience in crafting polished games with fun mechanics and engaging monetization strategies. Throughout the years I had the oppoturnity to lead or co-design several amazing titles with Unity on mobile platform, most notably, Ejen Ali: Emergency, Ejen Ali: Agents’ Arena, Komuniti Kita, and recently, Titan Heroes, on Roblox platform.

I am adept at writing Game Design Documents and crafting formulae on Google Sheet to simulate and balance the game progression, while working closely with programmers, artists, and producer and come up with seamless solutions for any difficulties, be it technical, time constraint, or engagement/retention KPIs.

During my free time I also like to tinker with technological stuff such as running nginx and some tools via Docker container over Hyper-V, with my own domain with SSL set up on Cloudflare. I also run my main email account over a catch-all vanity domain for privacy reasons. For security part, I use a password manager and set up 2FA with YubiKeys whenever possible.

Below are a few technologies I've been working with, professionally or personally:
  • Unity
  • Roblox Studio
  • Google Sheets
  • Notion
  • Docker
  • Cloudflare
  • Email deliverability
  • As a de facto IT support
