February 2025 delivered core grid-based in-scene building capabilities, expanded gameplay interactions, and critical balance fixes, with strong emphasis on system architecture and user experience. Key progress includes a Grid-based Building Mode System built on a reusable GridManager, grid visualization, drag-and-drop building, and a responsive build-mode UI. The team also introduced new gameplay elements (Moving Platform and Wind Obstacle) to deepen level interaction and challenge. A bug fix ensures treasure collection occurs only once per round, preserving game balance. These outcomes enhance level design flexibility, player engagement, and overall game stability while showcasing proficiency in grid-based systems, input handling, and UI integration.
