Over three months, Ward developed and refined core gameplay systems for the EricWRogers/Sci-Die repository, focusing on weapon integration, drone mechanics, and shop interactions. He implemented new weapon assets and prefabs in Unity, using C# scripting to enable multi-weapon support, dynamic spawn points, and drone activation features. Ward enhanced the shop system with state gating and random weapon acquisition, improving player flow and replayability. His work included scene asset management for performance optimization and UI development to streamline user experience. The depth of his contributions is reflected in robust, scalable systems that support rapid content expansion and maintainable gameplay logic.

December 2024: Focused on performance optimization and gameplay polish. Implemented Scene Asset Management across Colton and Rasheeda scenes to optimize runtime and tailor content; refined gameplay mechanics and shop UX to improve player interaction; and introduced Gun Purchase Rando for randomized weapon acquisition, enhancing replayability and monetization potential. Demonstrated robust collaboration through merge-ready changes and pre-merge auto-stashing to ensure smooth integration and CI readiness.
