During January 2025, work focused on the noah-nm/f24-mario-party repository, where a new Simon Game mode was developed and integrated into the existing game selection flow. Using Java and object-oriented programming principles, the feature introduced a complete end-to-end gameplay experience, including UI rendering, input handling, and a seamless transition to a leaderboard upon game completion. The implementation established a clear, testable user pathway from initiation through winner determination, setting a scalable foundation for future minigames and analytics integration. No regressions were reported, and the codebase was extended in a way that aligns with ongoing product goals in game development.
