Over eight months, Hayjus contributed to the Cozy-Crow/CrowHeist_Prototype repository by building interactive 3D environments, gameplay systems, and modular UI features in Unity using C# and Shader Graph. Their work included level prototyping with greybox workflows, dynamic player movement and dash mechanics, and the integration of puzzle elements such as lock-and-key systems and breakable objects. Hayjus focused on iterative scene design, asset management, and shader-driven visual polish to enhance player engagement and support rapid playtesting. The engineering approach emphasized maintainable code, reusable prefabs, and clear version control, resulting in a robust foundation for scalable gameplay and future content expansion.
