Top SchoolAndrei Rudenko is a game engine developer and multidisciplinary game artist with 11 years of experience building scalable, reusable gameplay and engine systems, tools, and production pipelines. He combines low-level technical contributions—such as cross-platform gamepad support and audio backend fixes in well-used open-source libraries like Kode/Kore and Kha—with hands-on art direction and asset production for live mobile titles. At NOWWA he shaped end-to-end projects including a 150+ asset character customization system, while at Erth.AI he focuses on game development tools and engine work. As an independent developer he has shipped custom frameworks and DSP-enabled audio mixers, and maintains an itch.io/GitHub portfolio that blends code and art. Trained as a painter (MA/BA), he brings a design-driven sensibility to systems engineering, often bridging artistic needs and performance constraints. Based in Tiraspol, Moldova, he thrives at the intersection of creative direction and low-level engine problem solving.
