Summary
Justin Noppers is a Lead Game Developer and software engineer with seven years of cross-disciplinary experience building games, web apps, tooling and localisation programs from concept to release. He currently leads a small team creating a fully animated visual novel using Live2D while collaborating closely with artists, writers and musicians to deliver custom graphics and gameplay. Justin combines hands-on engineering (Swift, TypeScript, Python) and web development with operations experience—managing large multicultural communities, Discord integrations and bespoke bots for a 95k-member server. He’s run localisation projects coordinating ~80 translators across a dozen languages and has a track record of translating product needs into practical technical and editorial solutions. Pragmatic and curious, he moves between coding, proofreading and customer-facing roles, which helps him spot UX and content issues early.
