Worked on the UCM-FDI-DISIA/Carom repository, delivering core gameplay systems, UI enhancements, and stability improvements over four months. Developed foundational input handling, physics world integration, and state management using C++ and a component-based architecture. Migrated UI controls to SVG, integrated vector assets, and overhauled the main menu for visual consistency. Enhanced user experience with a new Controls menu, localization for reward displays, and refined scene layouts. Addressed gameplay balance, improved input handling, and fixed critical bugs, including SDL window management. Emphasized maintainable code through refactoring, documentation, and code cleanup, supporting scalable development and smoother onboarding for future contributors.

May 2025 monthly summary for UCM-FDI-DISIA/Carom focused on delivering core gameplay UX improvements, localization, and stability enhancements. Implemented a robust Controls Menu System with a dedicated Controls scene and main menu integration, added translation support for reward names/types and improved end-game visuals, and polished scene layout for better visual alignment. Also balanced gameplay through targeted reductions of random ball effects, extended input capabilities with right-click support, and improved pause/exit flow. Fixed an SDL window close bug, clarified onboarding by renaming Settings to Tutorial, added a small missing piece of functionality, and cleaned up code comments for readability. These efforts collectively improve onboarding, accessibility, player feedback, stability, and maintainable code while delivering tangible business value.
