Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolJaime S is a founder and lead designer with 11 years crafting combat-first games and systems, specializing in fighting games and immersive game-feel. As head of ArcForged he created the Bolt Framework — a deterministic, rollback-ready combat framework for Unreal Engine 4 — and shipped multiple indie fighters including Head 2 Head and experimental prototypes that explore timing and impact. He combines hands-on frontend combat design (hitboxes, hurtboxes, move networking) with product and business development experience, moving projects from rapid prototypes to full releases. Jaime has worked freelance and in-studio roles across VR and physics-driven combat, bringing a visual arts background to gameplay aesthetics and timing. Based in Florida, he balances technical implementation with a designer’s eye for rhythm and player feedback, often building tools that scale collaborative development. Colleagues lean on him for turning combat theory into reliable, netplay-ready systems that feel satisfying in players’ hands.
