Worked on the ArchipelagoMW/Archipelago repository over four months, delivering a new Emblem Hunt goal for the MLSS Randomizer that introduced Beanstar Emblems as a progression mechanic. This involved refactoring core logic for modularity, updating data structures, and adjusting region connections to support extensibility. Addressed gameplay stability by fixing a door activation timing bug and implemented a manifest file for Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga to ensure Python 3.8 compatibility. Applied targeted bug fixes and code cleanup to improve client-server connectivity, leveraging Python, JSON handling, and asynchronous programming to enhance maintainability, reliability, and future development readiness across the codebase.
