Rescue Rangers was part of the Westpac Schools Program app for teaching children about the Westpac Lifesaver Rescue Helicopter Service. Players pilot a helicopter around virtual Australian landscapes and take on a range of missions, performing duties that WLRHS crew do in real life.

This small game was a joy to work on and stands out as one of the more polished projects I've been a part of. My contributions include all of the gameplay programming (I was particularly happy with how the helicopter felt to control around the maps), and a significant portion of the UI. This app featured native UI for both iOS and Android, built using Xamarin.
