System Designer
Game-mode
I created and maintained the gamemode blueprint from the start of the project. This allowed me to work on a lot of implementing features together and solving bugs when inevitably certain features were hampering eachother. I was also the person to set up the main gameplay loop. The entire blueprint is readable on this page here
Scoring
I was also responsible for the scoring system and the pins resetting after each round.
working on this system gave me a more technical system to focus on which has helped me tremendously with overcoming the fear of learning new technical skills.
