Over three months, contributed to UQcsse3200/2025-studio-4 by developing and integrating core game features focused on player progression, UI enhancements, and persistent state management. Built systems for tracking and displaying player resources, implemented persistent star and hero progression using Java and LibGDX, and ensured customizations and unlocks were reliably saved and loaded across sessions. Applied object-oriented programming principles to centralize state management and streamline initialization, while refining UI elements for clarity and usability. Emphasized maintainability through internal refactoring, configuration management, and unit testing, resulting in cohesive gameplay experiences and robust backend support without introducing regressions or unresolved bugs.
October 2025 monthly summary for UQcsse3200/2025-studio-4. Delivered cohesive hero progression integration and persistence. Centralized hero state management and consolidated game state data into save/load flows, enabling reliable progression across sessions. Simplified main menu UI by removing the star counter, reducing assets and UI complexity, with no observed regressions. Implemented cross-session skin persistence for hero weapon and character skins, ensuring player customizations persist between plays. Improved pause/unpause UX to prevent pausing during typing and ensure smooth resume after dialogs, enhancing user experience. Executed internal refactor to streamline initialization, removing DeckDisplay from PlayerFactory and avoiding creation of a new GameStateService on startup, improving startup reliability and maintainability. Also delivered UI polish for tower icons and book display alignment to enhance visuals.
