This project is a remake and port of DeltaBlade 2700. The game was originally created by 6 of our 11 team members from the DigiPen Institute of Technology. The focus for this project is to recreate the game in an entirely new custom engine of our own making, using the skills and knowledge we have learned during our time at DigiPen. My contributions to the project include: - Created a Tilemap editor using ImGui with a focus on rapid creation and testing of new levels - Developed a UI system utilizing ECS components, allowing the creation of complex UI relationships with minimal code - Designed a Level Editor with our in-house UI system so players can easily create and share new levels - Integrated multiple performance profilers under a common API, allowing performance analysis across multiple development platforms Show less
