I'm Christian Burgio, a passionate game designer & developer. I am currently employed at XRG/Red Cartel as a mid-level software engineer.
Welcome to my portfolio! This idea came about when i stumbled across 7.css, which led me to xp.css!
Growing up, my first experiences with a computer were on a Windows XP machine, so there is a lot of
nostalgia for me.
A lot of my favourite games were also released during the XP era, that i grew up on and still play to
this day; such as Command & Conquer Generals,
Age of Empires 2, The Sims 2 and Empire Earth 2.
I still own all of these games on disk plus a variety of others from the era, so in 2024 I decided to
build a "period-correct" (sort of) Windows XP machine to play them on.
But enough with that rant!
When I'm not programming, you can find me exploring game design concepts, experimenting with emerging technologies, playing various games for inspiration or car detailing. Check out OpenSourceDetailing.com for more info on that !

Beer tag is an 80s themed concept game based around AI & Procedural Content Generation (PCG) networked tech demo. The arena style shooter sees players compete in a king-of-the-hill style game mode to hold the beer for the longest.
This project showcases advanced AI systems and procedural content generation techniques in a fun, competitive multiplayer environment.
Astro Assault is the outcome of a one week class assessment, where one group would create a GDD based on an existing retro arcade game and another would need to create a game based only on that GDD using agile development methodologies.
This rapid prototyping project demonstrates effective team collaboration and agile development practices within tight time constraints.
