//Designed and implemented a modular achievement system using Scriptable Objects. This allowed achievement assets to be dynamically registered and processed through the Achievement Manager. The system routes progression data to all relevant achievement objects, enabling each achievement object to independently evaluate completion conditions and notify the manager upon completion. Integrated the system with Steam achievements for platform support and unlock synchronization.

- I created a scheduling system and location system for Town NPCs. This involved setting up:
//Destinations: the places NPCs could go //Schedules: A Time, A Place, and An Action
- Depending on the NPCs action (Working, At Home, Idle), they would go to different locations within a Destination.
- If working they would go to the working sublocation and alert the shop object that they are currently working and can set up shop.
- If at home, they will not take up occupancy at the home sublocation, allowing multiple NPCs to live in the house without causing issues. This works because the player cannot enter NPC homes.
- If idle, they will pick a random sublocation within the Destination and go there.

- This is the AI logic for the Mistwalker grunt enemy. 
- When the player is not around it will wander to random locations within 15m. 
- Occasionally it will find a crop or structure the player has placed and attempt to destroy it.
- When the player is around, it will lunge at the player from a certain distance and within close range do a basic attack

- This is the AI logic for the Mutated Crow, a flying creature
- The crow is scared of the player at first when approached, taking off into a flying mode
- Once in the air the crop will circle different points around it
- Each crow has two modes it switched between: Crop mode and Attack mode
- When in Crop mode the crow will circle and target crops
- When in Attack mode the crow will swoop above the player dealing damage
- The crow will switch often between these modes to confuse the player

Bug collecting is a large part of VeilWood. For the Bug Shrine Puzzle, the player must collect a certain amount of bugs to complete it. The player has 2 options:

1. Collect Bugs Manually
2. GAMBLE

Pachinko, Slots, and Blackjack were all implemented giving the player a way to earn more bugs

For Pachinko, the player must launch a bug into a certain hole. This system relies on predefined force values that grant the player success in their launch. Timing and launch power are both important due to the moving part of the machine. I did all the animations and logic for the machine.

The Slot Machine has a 25% of outputting a "reward". As featured in this video, the reward is an exploding bug that damages you. Other rewards the machine can give is money, more bugs, seeds, or even shotgun ammo. I did all the animations and logic for the machine.

This game features a full recreation of Blackjack, allowing the player to bet their bugs against the robot dealer. I did the animations and logic for Blackjack.

VeilWood has 3 nutrient types:

Gloamphage: Purple
Terrazyme: Green
Ichor: Red

Based on which nutrient type each crop consumes most of, the player will find braziers with that matching nutrient symbol. Players can test which nutrient is most consumed at the nutrient tested featured at the beginning of the video.

In order to do the rotating pillar puzzle, a player must acquire the crop to use as a key for the puzzle. After this they must sort the pillars in order of growth stage sprite.

This puzzle gives a riddle as to which flower goes in each pot. Incorrect guesses lead to the player's flowers burning up.

The Water Puzzle is a progression check puzzle. It makes sure the player has the Water Gun, which allows them to shoot the tiles from a distance, which they wouldn't be able to do with their watering can.

I worked on the Inventory System using Scriptable Objects with IDs and a database to store all of these items. This included the UI Implementation of inventory interfaces and logic regarding stacking and moving items.

I worked on a Save/Load system using a JSON file. This stored information relating to player inventory, the structures / crops on the players farm, and the players progression.
