Key Achievements
Tools Programming
When working on this project I wanted to create a system for design balancing to be quickly implemented. I had been using Excel sheets to balance enemy stats and enemies in waves. In order to smoothen this process, I created a tool that would automatically convert CSV tables into enemy stats. This was one of my hardest tech challenges as I had to do a lot of experimenting to get it to work as one static function. All in all, I spent 4 days working on it and walked out having learned a lot.
