4/7 - 4/20: Creating the Final Build One of the pieces of feedback I got while playtesting is that the stalker felt out of place in the Windmill due to it’s primarily green color scheme. As a result, I worked with Alex Kisil and Naveen to change the color scheme to better match the stage (by switching the green to orange). This made the stalker feel much more in place with the overall stage, keeping the cohesion in tact. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5df1c47d6d39d733f14da104/1587432610062-PWDDRAJJI7H2PR0QT6MC/20200417_203203.jpg Devlog - 4/7 - 4/20: Creating the Final Build Level Design reached out about a glitch where the Stalwart would fall through the floor if it fell through the floor. I assigned Matan to figure out the cause of this task, and he figured out that the issue is caused by a faulty gravity check. The stalwart no longer flies through the floor. https://nikhilghosh.com/devlog/324-46-preparing-for-content-lock monthly 0.5 2021-12-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5df1c47d6d39d733f14da104/1586224235886-ZJLS7IV69600PVKLQ9CF/EditorTable.png Devlog - 3/24 - 4/6: Preparing for Content Lock An editor script that uses a formula to assign each enemy a “difficulty rating”. This number essentially tells a level designer how easy/hard an enemy is to fight against. This allows level designers to better balance their levels, as they have a better understanding of the difficulty.

I am a game programmer and designer of the WolverineSoft Studio, a 30-50 student multidisciplinary, long term video game development team at the University of Michigan. In addition, I am a student game developer at the School for Environment and Sustainability at the University of Michigan. The experience of my players is my number one priority. I work with artists, musicians, audio engineers, UX designers, and level designers to create the best possible games. Game Programmer My responsibility as a game programmer is to design, build, and test systems that create the game. Since these systems will be used by people of many disciplines and background, I coordinate close with artists, level designers, and audio engineers to ensure that these systems are robust and easy to use, and adjust them to better suit their needs. To satisfy the needs of my team, I communicate with them early and often and structure my code with the potential to make the necessary changes. https://nikhilghosh.com/flay-the-fire daily 0.75 2019-12-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5df1c47d6d39d733f14da104/1576352320765-1KFQG9YLU6OCS3MEC9N4/Screenshot+%28155%29.png Flay The Fire - About Flay the Fire Flay the Fire is a deck building card game with roguelike elements.
