Portrait of Leandro Peres

Leandro PeresGraphics & engine programmer

I build game engines from first principles, and share what I learn.

From Goiânia, Brazil, with 10+ years of games shipped in Unity and Unreal. These days, physics, rendering and emulators in C and C++.

About

By day, I build projects, share experiments from the lab, and write posts and study notes about game development, rendering, emulation, physics, and programming.

After hours, I spend time with my husband and family, solve math puzzles, read, write poems, and crochet ( ⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝). That’s where many of my best ideas begin.

Graphics
Vulkan, OpenGL / ES, WebGL 2, GLSL / HLSL / Slang, RenderDoc
Engines
Unreal, Unity, Raylib, Emscripten
Languages
C (C99), C++, C#, TypeScript, Python, Lua, x86 / 6502 assembly
Focus
Render hardware interfaces, constraint-based physics, emulators, memory arenas
