Contributions
My biggest contribution to this team project, besides coding the transition between universes, was the 150+ hours of debugging that the other programmers and I did over 2 months.
Volumetric Fog and Rain
While asset placement fell to others, I had to make sure that each universe felt distinct enough for players to travel through and know the difference between them.
Enemy and Player Ragdolls
There is not a more satisfying way to rid yourself of enemies than to play with their ragdoll, and there is no better indicator of where your last attempt went wrong.
Sound Design
I created and implemented the background music, ambient sounds, and some of the sound effects present throughout the game.
