November 2024 — Pixel-Plumbers-Fall-2024: Delivered core gameplay and architecture enhancements across audio, item management, spawning, and level loading, with targeted stability fixes. Notable outcomes include a new Sound Effects System, a core main refactor to improve structure/readability, item system refactor with IItem interface updates (including currentPosition), spawning system enhancements for mushrooms and power-ups, and groundPosition handling with updated item sprites. The batch also laid groundwork for level/load infrastructure improvements and a codebase rebuild to refresh dependencies and structure. These changes improve gameplay polish, reduce runtime errors, and establish a scalable foundation for ongoing feature work such as enhanced item physics, level initialization improvements, and robust collision handling.
