JaeSuGang developed core gameplay systems and multiplayer features for the HeroesOfYggdrasil repository, focusing on scalable architecture and robust player experiences. Over four months, JaeSuGang implemented upgrade and stage management systems, refactored core components for maintainability, and introduced designer-friendly workflows using Unreal Engine Blueprints and C++. The work included networked player state synchronization, attribute replication, and a data-driven upgrade system, all supported by rigorous debugging and code organization. By integrating cheat modes and developer tooling, JaeSuGang improved testing efficiency and stability. The engineering approach emphasized modularity, performance optimization, and collaborative workflows, resulting in a well-structured, extensible codebase.
During May 2025, delivered Cheat Mode: InvincibleAll, a universal attack boost feature that enables all characters to receive enhanced attack power for broader testing and debugging. The feature was implemented via the InvincibleAll function and is supported by two commits for traceability and quick iteration: edb73111ce43b4b14ecc12df60ee400bdc8877e0 and 498ab05aebd70f8defaac42f770900b0849aac3b (치트모드 공격력 증가; 치트 수정). This work improves QA efficiency by enabling consistent combat states across the roster, accelerating reproduction of edge cases and balancing checks. Total impact: faster bug repro, safer regression testing, and a more robust baseline for future feature experiments. Demonstrated skills: feature flagging-like approach within the game's testing harness, careful commit hygiene, and cross-character testing workflows. Technologies: game engine code, testing harness integration, and repository-level collaboration in JaeSuGang/HeroesOfYggdrasil.
