Viva Piñata (PC port)

Viva Piñata is a charming virtual-pet simulation game created by Rare for the Xbox.

I worked as a programmer on the PC (Games for Windows) port of Viva Piñata. As a senior developer on this project, my work split was roughly 80/20 programming / publisher facing documentation.

Viva Piñata was implemented in C using Rare's custom game engine.

My role on the project combined:

• Technical design for scaling the Xbox specific fur effects to work on wide range of PC / graphic card configurations, &
• Debugging & bug fixing.

Climax used Perforce for source control for this project.
