I started working on the Vitrine project during the concepting phase, and I had the opportunity to rapid-fire develop 8 separate playable prototypes before we landed on the final concept. I was the main programmer, and worked directly with Lead Designer and Lead Artist to produce a vertical slice demo. My duties included:
•Coding core game systems and mechanics to match design docs
•Implementing art assets to look and animate as shown in mock-ups
•Maintaining Github repository for shared project work
•Mentoring junior engineering developer and assigning tasks
•Assisting with external playtesting sessions for user feedback
