Basic gameplay systems
I was tasked with implementing systems for the player movement, camera, area transitions, puzzle elements interactions and visual feedback of audio beats.
Solving technical challenges created by the visual direction of the game
I pushed for a 3D world simulation while keeping the 2D assets, in order to be able to fulfill the designed puzzle mechanics without requiring a redo of art assets. This implied translating the player movement and mechanics from a 2D space to a 3D space, a conversion system between 3D to 2D space, and level creation in 3D space while using 2D assets.
Early design and tool creation for level making
In charge of the creation process of early levels and created some tools to help making them.
