Built in Construct 3, which uses visual scripting structured similarly to JavaScript, I learned the engine's ins and outs by creating a range of small systems and tests before starting this project during my sophomore year of high school.

Before Quick Whips, I already enjoyed math and programming. I made simple projects in Scratch and Java, and taught myself calculus, trigonometry, and basic discrete math concepts when I was younger.

I consider Quick Whips my first major project. Construct 3 is a real game engine used in shipped games. I spent a lot of time researching how it works and asking questions in the forums and Discord server to gain a strong understanding of the engine.

Super Short Bros. is a tile-scrolling 2D platformer inspired by Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario Maker, developed in JavaFX. I built it as my final project for Computer Science 2 to demonstrate my understanding of JavaFX, choosing to challenge myself with a full platformer rather than a typical GUI-based application. The game includes player movement, collisions, enemies, level saving/loading, and tile-scrolling, all programmed from scratch.

v0.4.6 was the version I turned in for my university class (Dec, 2024). Since then, I continue to update the project, advancing my skills in Java and game engine development.

Currently leading and managing a team of 9 students (7 programmers and 2 artists) using Unity and GitHub for version control. The original concept and design was not my first choice. Nonetheless, I handled the technical work and ensured the game ran smoothly while staying glitch-free. So far, I've programmed Enemy AI, raycasting for better lighting and vision, and coaching other programmers based on knowledge and experiences gained through prior game development projects.

Through this I've been improving my leadership, problem-solving, and team management skills on a fast-paced student project. I had to quickly learn Unity, Git, and GitHub to assist the team.
