About Jackson Clayton
Hey! Always happy to connect with folks in games, feel free to reach out!I build levels, loops, and gameplay systems for live games (traditional + UGC), and recently shipped a multiplayer Poppy Playtime experience that hit 10,800+ CCU and #1 Horror.Right now I’m owning a major stealth project end to end at Future Trash (plus portfolio support), rapid prototyping with Chartis, building PLAYTRACE, and supporting unannounced work with Baobab Studios and Creators Corp.(in collaboration with DICE).At USC Games, I’m using my live-service and production skills to mentor student teams through real studio-style workflows and ship polished playable builds. I’m 23, and I care a lot about mentoring students and early career devs.I’m always excited for the next challenge. If you’re building something and think I’d be a good fit, I’d love to chat!
