My Contributions

For F1 24, I worked at Codemasters during the first 8 months of development. During my tenure, I was instrumental in crafting the early designs for the Challenge Career mode. This involved conceptualizing its functionality, developing the scoring system, and designing the tool used to create each Challenge Career.

Additionally, I worked on the UI/UX flows for initiating the various Career Modes. From setting up the rules and settings, as well as facilitating the selection process for F1, F2, and Icon Drivers that players could choose to play as throughout their careers.
