HERE IS HAOWEI ZHANG,
GAME CONSTRUCTOR.
A junior at the USC BFA Game Development and Interactive Design. Since 2022 I've been creating interactive experiences across every medium I could reach; in 2024 I moved to the wider stage of USC School of Cinematic Arts, shipping 10+ team projects in Unity and Unreal Engine.
My passion sits mainly at two ends: exploring any idea that could become a fun, immersive experience, and efficiently bringing the value of those ideas into the real world. Inside games, I construct rigorous playable systems that serve the fun. Outside games, I construct reliable execution systems that drive projects forward and carry the work to its audience.
Endlessly curious across fields. Always open to collaborations where design thinking meets experimental gameplay — or where a weird idea just needs a producer who can keep it on the rails.
