David Edgecombe

Director and Principal Unity Engineer at Ocean View Games. London, UK.

Unity Certified Expert. Previously Mobile Team Lead at Jagex (2017-2019), where I helped port RuneScape, a 20-year-old PC MMO, to iOS and Android. The launch hit #1 RPG on the App Store and has driven millions of installs.

Before Jagex, I built educational games at Fish in a Bottle for the Museum of London and Cambridge University Press.

What I work on

• High-performance Unity architecture for mobile and multiplayer
• Thermal, battery, and memory profiling on constrained devices
• Server-authoritative netcode with FishNet, from co-op to MMO-scale
• Mobile porting and performance rescue work on live titles

Selected work

• Domi Online: led the architecture for a FishNet-based MMO supporting 1,000+ concurrent players. The technical foundation helped the client close a $3M seed round.
• RuneScape Mobile: mobile team contributor on the port of RuneScape.
• Fire of London: Flash-to-HTML5 educational game for the Museum of London.

Writing

I publish on Unity performance, mobile UI, and multiplayer architecture on the Ocean View Games blog and DEV.to.
