Intern Game Engineer at Cove

January 1, 2024 - Present

Built a compute-shader island editor (hex grid) with real-time mesh-collider regeneration and GPU VFX, cutting CPU load ~3x and smoothing frames under load. Implemented a scalable decoration placement system using spatial hashing for fast lookups, live validity checks, and clear on-hover/placement overlays. Added dynamic terrain-layered editing with adaptive grids that auto-shift/re-seat decorations during topology changes to preserve valid placements. Designed an AI wildlife pipeline: grid-based spawners, stateful movement with avoidance using A* pathfinding, and multi-behavior agents for emergent ecosystems. Created Unity tools that mock JSON/backend responses and auto-setup test scenes, trimming the build–deploy loop by ~50% and enabling offline QA. Authored editor/placement/AI architecture diagrams; streamlined integration.
