CONTRIBUTION

My contribution

Team project.

  • Deputy team lead and level design
  • Rhythm input and core gameplay programming

CONTEXT

Rhythm input powers your attacks

Accurate rhythm inputs strengthen your attacks. We kept the notes in one lane and movement horizontal, so players could handle rhythm input and shooting together.

HOW IT WORKS

Rhythm input and core gameplay

I built the rhythm input and core gameplay, including player upgrades, and handled level design and the presentation. I also added code to correct note positions when they drifted from the music.
