UI And Visual Feedback Designer at Gamepad Tester

Designs the on-screen controller layouts so a fault is obvious at a glance.

Marcus is a UI and UX designer specialising in controller mapping interfaces, with a background in real-time 3D and WebGL controller models. His work here is the visual side of diagnosis: an on-screen pad that matches the controller in the player's hands, button and trigger states that respond the instant an input is read, and a layout where an abnormal reading stands out without needing a legend.

On Gamepad Tester he designs the tester interfaces and reviews answers that depend on reading the on-screen display correctly.
