Skills Learned:

My responsibilities involved being in the programming team with creating different 2 key systems. The first is the character selection screen, and the other is a combat visualizer.

The first had to be adaptable due to the project scale, the team was unsure how many characters we would make. In my process, I kept that in mind when creating the character selection menu and made it highly adaptable.

As for the combat visualizer, for the character attacks we wanted the animations not to be interrupted and flow consistently. I tackled this by putting the character’s attack in a queue format or First in, First Out method. This allows the attacks to be stored and executed in a orderly fashion even handling when a character has been defeated where their attacks will be removed in the queue.

I gained valuable insight in approaching my tasks for this project that provides efficient methods and problem-solving for the team. Even when approached with a concept I’ve never done, such as the combat visualization, I am determined to find a solution and research how to tackle it.
