Hi,

I'm Nathan, a French game progammer. A lot of my time is dedicated to writing code (almost) always related to video games.
I love every aspect of programming games (UI? maybe not so much...), from gameplay, to netcode, to graphics. I especially enjoy writing low-level code.

Ever since I played Counter Strike and Quake when I was a teen, I became fascinated with online games, so I decided to make a career out of it and specialized myself in game networking.

I'm currently the lead game server programmer at Critical Force, working on Critial OPS, a fast-paced online FPS on mobile.

nbnet is a C(99) network library designed to create real-time action games. I started to work on this library to learn about low-level networking for games.

nbnet relegates the low-level transport implementations to what I call drivers, making it possible to use the library in almost any environment (as long as you write a driver for it).

nbnet comes with an out-of-the-box WebRTC driver (written in JS) to develop online web games in C.

This project does not really have a definitive name. It was originally meant to be a 2D top-down battle royal game but it was scoped down to a 2D top-down shooter. The game is entirely written in C with raylib and uses nbnet for the netcode.
The game can be compiled to WASM to run in web browsers.

A online multiplayer bomberman clone playable in a web browser. The game is written in C and JS with WebRTC for networking and raylib for rendering; it's compiled to WASM using emscripten.
