Valtteri Vine

Game developer · Godot 4 / GDScript · Helsinki

I'm a Business IT student (BBA, software development) at Haaga-Helia. I build AXEL on my own in Godot 4, handling the programming, game design, art, music and releases. My strengths are testable architecture, automated testing and AI-assisted development. Behind that is a background in audiovisual production, entrepreneurship and B2B sales.

I'm looking for a Game Developer Trainee role, or an IT project management traineeship that can host my bachelor's thesis.

  • Combat: slot-machine 5×5 grid with line wins, wilds, cascades with a multiplier, three special abilities and a bonus round chain. Seeded RNG makes combat reproducible and testable.
  • World: 7 explorable areas, scene transitions, rarity-tiered loot, random encounters, map travel and multiple endings.
  • UI, saving & audio: menus, persistent settings, HUD, item wheel, CRT/glitch post-processing, 3 save slots, separate music and SFX systems.
  • Quality: automated headless tests (determinism, settings, pause, menus). Narrative and combat layers are decoupled for testability. Playtest issues get logged as fix plans.
  • Workflow: AI-assisted development (Claude Code, Cursor) in research, plan and implement phases. Git, documentation and a changelog. Also the pixel art, the music (FL Studio) and publishing.
