Portfolio Projects – Qinwen Tang
This repository showcases a selection of my technical and game development projects built using Unity, C++, Python, and web tools. Most of these projects were created as part of my coursework or capstone projects at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), or through personal exploration and experimentation.
Role: Systems & Interaction Programmer
Tech Stack: Unity, C#
Narrative detective game about intuition, legacy, and uncovering hidden truths. As the systems programmer, I implemented the interactive evidence system, integrated gameplay with dialogue, and collaborated with the team to deliver a smooth narrative–gameplay experience.
Key responsibilities:
- Built the evidence class structure and logic to support drag-and-drop interactions and conditional linking
- Synchronized evidence events with branching dialogue sequences using custom triggers
- Integrated animations and visual feedback to guide players through investigative steps
- Collaborated with writers and artists to ensure gameplay–narrative coherence
- Localized the entire game UI and content into simplified Chinese for game festival submission 📄 [Contact for playable build or localization showcase]
Role: Gameplay Programmer
Tech Stack: Unity, C#
Puzzle game where players tie specific soul-representing knots on a grid. I implemented the core rope interaction and tutorial systems, including:
- Drawing knots using Unity's Line Renderer
- Pin interaction logic (click, right-click, delete, reset)
- Interactive tutorial sequence to teach mechanics and controls

Role: Front-End Developer
Tech Stack: React.js, Mapbox
An interactive web app for visualizing WiFi signal strength across campus. I handled front-end components, integrated Mapbox with React, and proposed an OOP-based modular UI structure.
Role: Student Developer
Tech Stack: Python, OpenCV
A collection of assignments from the CSCI 4270 Computer Vision course at RPI. Tasks involved building end-to-end pipelines for image classification, feature detection, and difference analysis.
Key topics:
- Image difference detection and frame comparison
- Feature extraction using OpenCV (edges, contours, histograms)
- Training simple convolutional neural networks for classification
- Histogram matching and intensity transformations
📂 [Coming soon]
Role: Project Developer Tech Stack: Web / Mapping Stack A student-led project aimed at providing accessible navigation tools on campus. I built the early framework for a map-based application and supported UI design for future route data integration.
Unwrap RPI
A contemplative game about retracing the musical history of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Players use historical artifacts and melody-based placement puzzles to uncover personal and institutional memories.
▶ Play on itch.io
Jackpot Justice
A chaotic casino-themed top-down shooter where weapons are generated by pulling a slot machine. Each spin creates a new combo of projectile patterns and effects.

In the Throes
▶ Play on itch.io
Mullering Wander
A balance-based traversal game focused on physical instability and emergent puzzle solutions.
▶ Play on itch.io
Loudhorse
A noisy party game where players shout into microphones to make their horses run faster. Chaos, volume, and competitive screaming guaranteed.
▶ Play on itch.io
Breakthrough
A short, surreal narrative experience reflecting on isolation, identity, and transformation.
