About Me

Hello! I am a creative programmer who is driven by exploring and learning new things. My biggest hobby is programming, especially game development and system level programming, but I also enjoy gaming. I am a team player who put an emphasis on code quality and readability for my colleagues. I am currently studying my 5th year of Computer Science at the University of Gothenburg.
My programming career started in middle school with Game Maker. I speak swedish and english fluently.

Projects

NES Game From Scratch Written in Assembly 🐍🕹️

github.com/TitaniusThorgor/NES_SNAKE A reimplementation of Snake for the NES, written in 6502 Assembly without any use of libraries (I did all the programming). We got the game running on physical hardware by soldering programmed EPROMs to a game cartridge.

Churf: a functional programming language 👩‍🔬

github.com/bachelor-group-66-systemf/churf My bachelor thesis. The project consisted of us (6 students) creating a compiler for a strongly-typed functional programming language compiled to LLVM. I implemented monomorphization.

NES Emulator + Assembler Written in Rust 🤖

github.com/Rakarake/remun A work-in-progress NES emulator and accompanying assembler (which is complete).

2D Platformer 🦘

git.rakarake.xyz/Project2/Project2 A project I have been working on for a very long time that has experienced many different iterations in different game eninges. The current iteration is using Godot4 and has a fairly fleshed out movement system.

ECS Game Engine 🎮️

github.com/Rakarake/engineless An ECS game engine (not complete) inspired by Bevy that uses C# runtime reflection to provide systems with components.

Bing 🗿 Bingo

rakarake.xyz/bingbingo/, sourcecode: github.com/Rakarake/bingbingo/ Small javascript application to create, play and share bingo cards, built without web frameworks since I wanted to learn web technologies.
