Seeking a 2027 placement year · Computer Science, University of Hertfordshire

Hi, I'm Leo.
I build games and web apps from scratch.

Second-year Computer Science student who has been coding since age 13. Six years of shipping complete projects: Unity/C# games, full-stack websites and Python. Currently building Knowitball, a football games platform.

Projects

What I'm building and what I've built.

Live · in beta

Knowitball

A browser-based football games platform. I coded the original version myself, then rebuilt it with two family members using AI-assisted development. It has user accounts, profiles with objectives, a feedback system and a beta sign-up flow, plus a growing set of games.

Flagship game: Road to the Golden Ball, a football career game where you start as a kid at a trial and work your way to the top.

Unity & C# games

A series of games designed and built independently since 2020, several to a release-ready standard. I handle every stage myself: design, programming, testing and polish.
