PROFILE
Marco
Marc Gómez developed core gameplay systems and infrastructure for the UCM-FDI-DISIA/Carom repository, focusing on animation, rendering, and rewards-driven game logic. He rebuilt the animation pipeline using C++ and SDL, modernized the Entity-Component-System architecture with smart pointers and templates, and integrated JSON-based data handling for robust asset and inventory management. His work included implementing velocity-based ball dynamics, UI feedback, and a flexible rewards ecosystem, while also addressing memory management and cross-platform build automation. By delivering 46 features and resolving 36 bugs in five months, Marc ensured the codebase was stable, maintainable, and ready for release and future expansion.

May 1, 2025May 2025 monthly summary for UCM-FDI-DISIA/Carom highlighting key features, major fixes, impact, and technical outcomes. Focused on delivering high-value gameplay and reliable release readiness, while strengthening the code base, deployment process, and developer tooling. Key features delivered: - Line Rendering Enhancements: dotted-line rendering and code cleanup (commits: 3258d58..., 69b5d3a0..., 35c918c6..., 376cb43e...). These changes improve visual clarity and maintainability of line-related rendering. - Ball visuals and dynamics: velocity-based ball rolling, rotation, and expanded frame renderer support, with more starting balls (commits: d9b082ef..., 21f9d917..., dee8b826..., 4b39eaaf..., bb76339b...). Enhances realism and player feedback. - Rewards ecosystem: Rewards API integration, Instant Reward System and Reward Scene integration, plus StickRewards flow and reward visuals/UI (representative commits across b65f8516..., 8e9760e3..., 555677e3..., ee3e40ef..., 64ed48b6..., 6f605e78...). Enables faster reward-based gameplay and polished UI. - Inventory integration for balls: add ball entries by ID and rewards-based ball IDs (commits: 3c49c5a7..., 55b2bc51...). Improves gameplay continuity and reward-driven progression. - Build/distribution readiness: installer creation and final build for release (commits: 7832a7be..., 0b264b58...). Reduces friction for distribution and customer deployment. - Debug/Dev tooling: debug guards and build/testing scaffolding to accelerate development (commits: a2787466..., daaecfc9..., 610dc4cc..., 3f3cc47b...). Major bugs fixed: - Memory leaks across components (rewardinfodisplay, jsonentityparser, ballinfodisplay, tutorialhitstates) with multiple fixes (ae271374..., b0998edf..., d3b8691b..., da857ae5..., a35b8a32...). - Crash fixes: balls without render textures, StickInputComponent, removal crash of ballHandler, and related parsing inconsistencies (a3b1aa49..., 45cc6cd3..., 6c4128ce..., 032c3e61..., 324a2f7a...). - Pause and state stability: Pause control bug fix and inventory pause stability (c254812f..., ebc9f7ad...). - JSON integrity & formatting: normalball JSON corruption and comma formatting fixes (779aa0e9..., 7e002cb6...). - UI/visual polish bugs: card suits rendering fix and window/zoom/color persistence issues (2f8dff2b..., 4fa79c3a..., 3b4233e8..., c8bdc33b..., bb0a777a...). - Other reliability: various crash fixes including removal of legacy hooks and input-related glitches (e.g., crash in BallHandler removal, etc.). Overall impact and accomplishments: - Significantly improved gameplay fidelity through refined rendering and physics-like ball dynamics, delivering richer player feedback and a smoother experience. - Strengthened monetization and retention pathways with a robust rewards system and reward visuals, enabling quicker iteration on game economy features. - Enhanced deployment readiness with installer packaging and final release build, reducing time-to-market and support overhead. - Stabilized the codebase via comprehensive memory leak fixes, crash hardening, and robust parsing, contributing to higher reliability in QA and live environments. - Established stronger development tooling with debug guards and testing scaffolds, improving developer efficiency and code quality. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Real-time rendering pipelines and game loop improvements (LineRenderer, SpriteSheetRenderer, frame-based rendering) - Physics-like ball dynamics (velocity-based rolling, rotation) and asset integration - Rewards systems integration (Rewards API, RNG, inventory integration, UI assets) - JSON parsing robustness, memory management and leak diagnosis - Build automation, installer distribution, and release engineering - UI/UX polish and SVG/UI asset integration - Cross-functional collaboration across features and bug fixes
