Worked on ARF-SS13/coyote-frontier, focusing on configuration management and game development to refine creature size parameters for multiple species. Over two months, delivered features that adjusted minimum, default, and maximum height and width values in YAML configuration files, improving visual balance and player perception in the game prototype. Later, removed restrictive size caps to support larger creature forms, aligning with evolving design goals and restoring intended gameplay fidelity. All changes were tracked through explicit, reviewable commits, enabling traceability and easy rollback. The work established a configuration-driven approach, streamlining future balance iterations and supporting rapid prototyping within the game’s development cycle.

Month 2025-10 monthly summary for ARF-SS13/coyote-frontier: Delivered a targeted capability adjustment by removing YAML size caps to enable larger creature sizes, aligning with design goals and improving gameplay fidelity. The change was implemented as a revert of prior size cap additions, restoring expected behavior (e.g., Swift can be a big rat again). This was tracked in a single commit: ee0995d483ba2884f3268bc7407d7934a2e31a6b, ensuring traceability and quick rollback if needed.

Month: 2025-09. This month focused on improving creature size balance and alignment with prototype definitions in ARF-SS13/coyote-frontier. Key feature delivered: Creature Size Parameter Tuning for Resomi, Rodentia, and Goblin, adjusting minimum, default, and maximum height and width to reflect intended statures. The changes enhance visual balance and player perception across species in the prototype configuration. Implementation was tracked via two commits: - 31233a5d77936add94df9206a557b10b44a94acf: 'Shrinks a few species who should be small anyway' - a5e6dd098942bf3f146c18c3fea4cc678b4dac6b: 'Actually, resomi were already pretty small' No major bugs were reported as fixed this month; the work prioritized balance and configuration stability. Overall, this enhances game feel and reduces future tuning friction, supporting quicker iteration cycles and better alignment with design intent.
