Photo of Madison

Hey, I'm Madison (she / they)! I'm a software engineer and game developer located in the San Francisco Bay Area, California, USA.

I've been building games and experiences on Roblox since 2009, and I'm also a lead manager in the community-run Roblox Discord server. Some people know me as Lunya.

My work focuses on building interactive systems, tools, and experiences, especially in and around Roblox. It spans shipped games, developer-facing resources, experimental prototypes, and community infrastructure.

A lot of what I make sits where technical systems and player-facing design meet. I work across gameplay programming, UI, tooling, and supporting infrastructure, with projects ranging from gameplay systems and NPC kits to procedural world generation, AI experiments, and large-scale community operations.

Right now, I'm working on a spooky photography game in Godot. It's my first Godot project, and an exploration of what kinds of games I can make outside of the Roblox platform. I'm also helping with local community-building events in the Bay Area.

If you're interested in working together, feel free to reach out.

I'm also a cat parent to two silly cats, Autumn and Spring! 🐈

Experience

I worked at Roblox for 7 years, building games, technical demos, developer resources, platform-facing tools, and work around the avatar marketplace. My work there spanned gameplay programming, UI, tooling, simulation systems, and creator-facing reference projects, including shipped experiences and official resources for Roblox Studio.

I've been making stuff on Roblox since 2009, and outside of that I also do web development, build community infrastructure, and make independent prototypes. A lot of my work comes from experimenting and learning through building, whether that's projects like Owlite, or other weird ideas I want to push further.
