Over five months, contributed to the ArchieStill/CGD-Game repository by building and refining gameplay features, visual systems, and core mechanics using Unreal Engine, Blueprint scripting, and C++. Delivered interactive object examination, dynamic occlusion, and cutscene integration, while enhancing level design with new assets, environmental hazards, and boss encounters. Improved visual fidelity through Niagara-based effects, material overlays, and camera post-processing, and stabilized gameplay with robust debugging, logging, and crash reporting. Addressed blueprint stability and asset management, enabling faster iteration and smoother player experiences. The work emphasized maintainable code, traceable commits, and tooling improvements to support ongoing development and release readiness.
April 2025 — ArchieStill/CGD-Game: Delivered core feature integration for Cliff in cutscenes, polished boss visuals and feedback, and redesigned level segments, while stabilizing the project with improved tooling and asset management. These efforts increased visual fidelity, player immersion, and release readiness, while reducing build fragility and enabling faster iteration.

March 2025 – ArchieStill/CGD-Game delivered significant UX, visuals, and stability improvements that directly enhance player engagement and reduce post-release risk. Key features delivered include Boulder Section Visual Polish and Camera Zoom (vignette and camera zoom), UI and Demo Audio Enhancements, and Environment Asset Update to NEWTrapdoor. Major bugs fixed include Hint System stability improvements (lifecycle: fade-in/out, camera transitions, asset handling) with extensive logging, fixes for rapid hint-camera switching, and a new timer progress bar. Additionally, stability and diagnostics work added crash reporting configurations and code pruning to improve debugging readiness. Overall impact: higher visual fidelity, smoother interactive experiences, and stronger tooling for issue detection and resolution. Technologies demonstrated include asset integration and replacement, camera effects, UI polish, and instrumentation for crash reporting and logging.
