Welcome to Yoann AMAR ASSOULINE’s
Goldanniyatech Universe!


Whimsical Horse from the Golden Project

3D Software Development & Publishing Company!

Hi there, I'm Yoann AMAR ASSOULINE! I founded Goldanniyatech in
with three core missions in mind:

  • Creating open-world 3D games from scratch as a solo developer
  • Teaching Computer Science as a Professor
  • Providing consultancy in 3D Software Dev and Frontend Web Dev
The 3D character Charlotte from Goldanniyatech, an open world game

Making 3D Games alone & from scratch!

I strive to create a high-quality game, so I specialized in developing 3D open-world games on my own, using cutting-edge tools:

  • Unreal Engine 5 for creating gameplay, in Blueprints and C++.
  • Blender for 3D modeling, sculpting, animation, and more!
  • Substance 3D (Designer & Painter) for PBR Texturing.
  • Photoshop to tweak some textures!

Total Creative Control

Although challenging, creating my game from scratch helps maintain complete creative control over the development process, ensuring I provide unique creativity and artistic freedom in my game!

Visual Studio Code

Creating Frontend Websites!

Beyond making 3D games, I'm also a frontend web developer, and I built this site from scratch using modern technologies to enhance your experience:

  • The Astro JavaScript framework, specialized in static websites (SSG).
  • The HTML markup language, as well as Markdown (MDX) for articles.
  • The SCSS preprocessor, a superset of the CSS stylesheet language.
  • The TypeScript programming language, also a superset of JavaScript.

Future Pocket Game Companion

My goal with the website is to create a full-fledged game companion, including a strategy guide, a mini wiki, and much more! Thus, the website will evolve alongside the game, offering exclusive secrets to supercharge your experience!

Sharing knowledge in Computer Science!

As a Computer Science Professor, I share my knowledge on many languages, software, and technologies I use on a daily basis for professional work, including:

  • 3D Software Development (Unreal Engine)
  • 3D Graphics (Blender, Substance 3D Designer & Painter, Photoshop)
  • Programming & Scripting (C++, Python)
  • Frontend web development (HTML, SCSS, TypeScript, Astro)

Lifetime Passion

I began programming & computer graphics as a self-taught teenager in 2004. By 2024, I published my PhD Thesis at Sorbonne University on the semiotics of 3D game development!

This gave me a unique perspective on game development and strengthened my ability to share knowledge!

Action-Adventure in a Mini Open World!

Codenamed the Golden Project, Goldanniyatech is my upcoming action-adventure game taking place in a mini fantasy urban open world, on a marvelous planet called Golden!

In this world, magic coexists with a technology slightly more advanced than ours, where Quantum Computers are available everywhere, from smartphones to vehicles!


Demo & Early Access

I will launch my game in Early Access within weeks, probably in April 2025, along with a Free Demo!

Until then, you can read some News and Insights on the game, or learn more about the development process!
