2D Platformer, Unity | WANIC - DigiPen Game (2020) | 7 dev
"Concatenate is a small pixelated platformer developed by a group of WANIC students for a 3 week project. In our game, you must go through physical puzzles to find 4 statues that will give you the ability to double jump, crouch, wall climb, and illuminate pathways. Finding each statue will allow you to exit the level and complete the game."
In this project, I was nominated the Producer by my peers, and was then responsible for selecting the project leads. This was one of my first official team projects.
Programmed all collectible player abilities -- double jump, crouch, climb, flame light
Developed patrolling enemy behaviors, health and damage systems
Integrated parallax backgrounds
Implemented checkpoints, and spikes that reset back to check-point when hit (depletes all health)
Conducted daily standups with team members, and attended lead's check-ins for all teams to report our current status to professors.
Set up task tracking systems and regularly checked in on the progress of all deliverables.
Evaluated milestone requirements to build a schedule looking ahead for the next 3 weeks.
Made plans for potential risk mitigations, and assessed budget / material needs.
COVID happened in the middle of this project, so risks were assessed according to those concerns, and mitigation plans were put into action once the team had to unexpectedly transition to remote work.
