Contributed to the Sunchasers repository by developing core gameplay systems, onboarding features, and modular level assets over a three-month period. Leveraged Unity, C#, and prefab workflows to implement a build area with ghost placement previews, a cell-based part rotation system, and hotbar integration, enhancing user experience and iteration speed. Delivered a first tutorial level and lift puzzle system with narrative guidance, while introducing modular PPSmall prefabs for rapid prototyping. Addressed gameplay stability through collider, walkability, and puzzle state fixes, and improved feedback with audio integration and particle system enhancements, resulting in smoother onboarding and more robust, scalable game development.
December 2024 (larsonl2889/Sunchasers) delivered onboarding-focused features, modular prototyping assets, and critical gameplay fixes that improve new-player experience and production throughput. Core features include the First Tutorial and Lift Puzzle System delivering the initial tutorial level, accompanying decorative level objects, placement refinements, a new DownCapPart, and a FirstLiftPuzzle setup with dialogue/text adjustments to guide new players. A new Small Level Part Prefab approach (PPSmall) enables modular level construction and rapid prototyping. German Puzzle and Core Gameplay Fixes stabilized puzzle interactions, adjusted colliders and walkability, refined doors, and ensured puzzle state stability (with safeguards to prevent removal of the starting part). Visual and Audio Enhancements improved steam particle behavior, platform sounds, and related audio properties for richer player feedback. Overall impact includes smoother onboarding, faster iteration cycles, and more stable gameplay loops, underpinned by a robust Unity prefab workflow and enhanced audio/visual systems.

November 2024 (Month: 2024-11) focused on delivering a more robust and playable build workflow in larsonl2889/Sunchasers. Key features were delivered to initialize the build area, visualize placements with ghost previews, and provide immediate visual feedback in build zones, while deep integration with the hotbar and rotation system enhanced UX and iteration speed. Reliability improvements to instantiate cells/blocks reduce misassociations during updates, supporting stable gameplay setup and scalable content creation.
