Max developed gameplay features for the ABallanza/Thief2_Map_Remake repository, focusing on both functional systems and prototyping workflows. He delivered a new elevator system by designing level elements and integrating Blueprint assets, enhancing level design flexibility and supporting future gameplay mechanics. Using Unreal Engine and UnrealScript, Max also explored asset prototyping, including a Sticky Bomb item and character duplication tests, while maintaining codebase stability through disciplined use of version control and reversible commits. His work demonstrated a methodical approach to feature delivery and experimentation, enabling rapid iteration without introducing bugs, and laying groundwork for scalable, maintainable game development within the project.

January 2025: Focused on exploratory asset prototyping and testing scaffolds for feature concepts in ABallanza/Thief2_Map_Remake, while preserving stability via reversible changes. Key experiments included an initial Sticky Bomb asset prototype and related blueprint adjustments (tested via a map change) that were subsequently rolled back to maintain mainline integrity, and the addition of a non-functional binary asset for player character duplication testing. The work demonstrates disciplined experiment design, rapid iteration with rollback, and foundational asset scaffolding for future iterations.
