PROFILE
Paul Charwat
Worked on the IMBIT-Mannheim/pixels repository, delivering gameplay features, UI enhancements, and deployment automation over four months. Developed keyboard-driven player movement, responsive animations, and a multi-level progression system using JavaScript, focusing on animation state management and collision detection. Enhanced the dialogue system to support multi-question flows, HTML rendering, and in-dialogue resource downloads, while improving localization and asset distribution. Maintained repository hygiene by removing obsolete AWS Amplify configuration files and streamlining onboarding. Automated development deployments with GitHub Actions and FTP workflows, improving reliability and reducing manual steps. Demonstrated skills in front-end development, configuration management, CI/CD, and documentation throughout the project.
