Ritabrata Das

C++ · Raylib · TypeScript · Cloudflare Workers · Cloudflare D1 · Emscripten · WebAssembly

• Led a multidisciplinary team of artists, programmers and composers to ship a bullet-hell title within a 20-day game jam.
• Engineered the game in C++ with Raylib and cross-compiled it via CMake to Windows, Linux and macOS, alongside a WebAssembly web build under 4 MB.
• Built the ranked leaderboard on Cloudflare Workers with D1 (SQLite), including server-side anti-cheat and obfuscated WebAssembly to preserve leaderboard integrity.

Python 3 · uvloop · C++ · Next.js · TypeScript · PostgreSQL · AWS · GCP · GNU/Linux

• Designed a low-latency proxy in Python 3 — using uvloop and low-level Unix socket handling — to route real-time multiplayer packets with minimal added latency, and implemented computer-controlled dogfighting aircraft.
• Forked and optimised the C++ game server for dedicated-server performance.
• Built the player-facing frontend (live leaderboards, PvP match analytics) in Next.js and TypeScript, deployed on Vercel.
• Architected infrastructure across PostgreSQL (AWS) and game and proxy hosts (GCP), sustaining 100% uptime over six months on a largely free-tier footprint.
• Scaled the server into the largest active YSFlight PvP community — 300+ registered pilots and 30+ hours of recorded PvP playtime.

Python · SciPy · k-means clustering

• Rendered the “Bad Apple!!” animation entirely within the redaction blocks of public U.S. Department of Justice filings, mapping video frames onto document layouts via k-means colour clustering.
• Project video surpassed 100,000 views on YouTube.

Python · Kivy · KivyMD · Buildozer · Android

• Represented Japan in a Model United Nations conference while engineering an Android tablet application in Kivy/KivyMD to present haiku poetry to delegates, backed by a REST service collecting visitor feedback.

Founded and independently operated a multiplayer game network. Authored server plugins for the SpigotMC platform in Java to ship bespoke gameplay, and managed end-to-end cloud infrastructure and deployment on Google Cloud Platform — optimising for cost and reliability while serving a live player base.

Delivered and deployed business-to-business solutions in Python and PHP for clients across the APAC and Western markets, hosted on private GNU/Linux (Debian and CentOS) servers. Provisioned and maintained the full mail and web stack — Dovecot, Postfix, Apache, Nginx and FTP — for production client environments.
