Alexandra McLellan contributed to the Mindshift repository by delivering a broad range of 3D environment and asset management features over five months. She overhauled scene lighting, modularized environment components, and integrated new gameplay assets, focusing on improving visual fidelity and production readiness. Using Unity and C#, Alexandra refined the rendering pipeline, implemented lighting bake workflows, and stabilized asset references to support scalable development. Her work included shader development, material configuration, and batch-processing tools for QA, resulting in more reliable asset pipelines and smoother plugin upgrades. The depth of her engineering ensured faster iteration cycles and enhanced the overall player experience.

June 2025 – Mindshift: Delivered a visuals overhaul and reinforced asset management. Key features delivered included an environment visuals overhaul with scene lighting updates, modularized environment components, and new assets (barrels, binder/book assets, pressure plate, seesaw). Completed plugin asset RID migration and resource reference updates to ensure compatibility with asset management and plugin updates. Result: richer in-game environments, improved asset pipeline reliability, and smoother plugin upgrades. Notable outcomes include 5 commit improvements for visuals (Allie's Fixes; Added Blake's assets; Added Resized Pressure Plate; Added resized seesaw; Added Barrel Variants) and 2 RID migration commits (Replace Plugin; Replace Plugin Part 2).
