Lead Development and Tool Work

I worked as lead developer and co-manager on a six-person core team for roughly half a year. My programming focused on game state architecture, gameplay-facing systems and tools that connected UI, progression, dialogue and run generation.

To keep features separated, I built a ScriptableObject-based state container and used event-based communication between systems. I also worked on editor tooling, including run generation previews and dialogue workflow tools, so content could be tested faster without touching too much code.

Managing a Larger Student Project

Outside of code, I led meetings, organized tasks, reviewed code and helped coordinate between art and programming. A lot of the work was deciding what not to build, because the team had different schedules and limited production time.

The project taught me that lead programming and project management both need real focus. Doing both at once worked for this prototype, but I would separate those responsibilities more clearly in a future team project.
