Project Description:
This is a large scale student project I am involved with, along with about 10 other students at UAT.
My programming responsibilities are mostly in regard to the overworld engine. I am in charge of managing map rendering, object management, portal based map transitions, and collision. In addition, I am in charge of implementing the interfaces that link entities on the overworld (such as NPCs, treasure chests) with their appropriate systems (dialog, inventory, etc).
Additionally, I am also managing the creation of a scripting system which will allow the designers to implement automated scenes within the game itself.
This project utilizes another project of mine, the Paradigm 2D Rendering Engine & World Builder, to render overworld entities as well as provide a way for the designers to create maps.
