Week Two of #ContraQuest- the project Iām most proud of šš
In 2017, I built my first real app: Run Kilo Run, an infinite runner starring my German Shepherd puppy, Kilo.
Built in Unity and shipped cross-platform (iOS + Android), it featured a global leaderboard, power-ups, and ragdoll physics (which I lovingly called ragdog physics). The #1 player in the world even wore a crown while playing and their name lived on the start menu for everyone to see.
This project taught me how to ship, iterate, push meaningful updates, and write patch notes. It turned curiosity into confidence and gave me my start in product thinking.
Tools: Unity, C#
Shaped me: from tinkerer ā builder. idea ā reality. A mantra I still live by today.
More of in 2026: playful, product-led, human experiences

š AstroFuel ā Gamified Nutrition/Fit app
I built AstroFuel; a bold, gamified fitness app that turns tracking calories into a leveling system.
ā” Calculate TDEE based on your stats
ā” Choose your goal (Cut / Maintain / Bulk)
ā” Dynamic macro targets
ā” Barcode scanning for instant food logging
ā” XP rewards + streak multipliers
ā” Neo-brutalist UI with hard shadows and bold hierarchy

The goal was to merge:
ā Fitness tracking
ā Neo-Brutalism/00's phunk.
ā Gamification psychology
ā Strong visual identity
AstroFuel is built mobile-first and designed to feel like Duolingo meets MyFitnessPal, Houston inspired as per usual š .
Love what youāve built with AstroFuel! Turning nutrition tracking into a gamified, habit-forming experience shows thoughtful UX and product design.
