My role: Lead Tools Programmer and Graphics Programmer

First time we dove into 3D game engines (BBS Engine). With the knowledge we acquired from previous games and engine development and a group of very talented programmers, we built a powerful and performant game engine to create Mag&Net.

Having done a game editor on Souls Of Iliad and thanks to the skills I developed when interacting with other teammembers to provide them useful tools, I started working on improving the way I made them in the past and created new quality of life ones to speed up the game’s development.

As my interest in graphics grew I decided to work on the Rendering Pipeline together with some of my teammates.

What I did:

  • Built the entire Game Editor using ImGui completely from scratch.
  • Room Editor to edit the game’s rooms in a fast and easy way.
  • Room UI Management, which allowed us to visualize rooms and their objects in an easy and organized way.
  • Fluid Shader acting as the acid that corrodes the players.
  • Shadow mapping and Shadow Baking.
  • Material Editor to enhance and add variety to the look of the game.
  • Post-Processing Effects such as Contrast and HSL.
  • AutoSave System in case something went wrong.
