Skills
I have been working on multi-disciplinary teams for over a year now, which has helped me to learn how to communicate with others and explain concepts that I have experience in, to those who may not.
Along with this I am proficient in C++, and have worked in custom engines, as well as Unreal
Zeppelin Rush
Zeppelin Rush is a tower offense game I made during my Sophomore semester at DigiPen on a team with other programmers, designers, artists, and a musician.
As seen here I helped create the capabilities of the buttons.
Theses buttons use an object parenting system that allows for the text asset to be completely separate from the art asset.
Zeppelins are purchased and deployed on lanes to be sent to destroy the towers.
The Zeppelins use the same object parenting system mentioned earlier, they utilize it to allow for the cannon, wings, and particles to all be separate. This benefitted the art team as they needed less animations, and helped the design team add and change particle effects whenever needed, without modifying the asset.
