Superfuse

Project Overview

Superfuse is a comic-book-styled hack'n'slash ARPG with a rich and accessible skill customization system. Craft unique skills from a huge array of powerful fuses, select one of three classes and embark on this journey alone or with up to 3 friends. When humanity needs hope, be the hero!

When I came into this project we had a need for AI gameplay systems and tooling to create better combat encounters. I was able to tackle this quickly, enabling our team to create interesting fights by providing a new architecture for our AI behaviors and creating modular pieces of logic for reuse by combat designers on the team.

One of the major technical contributions I made was creating an input and ability targeting system. This enabled us to handle input according to player expectations in the various comple combat scenarios for the many types of combat abilities, consistently handling environmental interaction and movement through the same flow.

I generalized key systems and utilities from this project into libraries that could be adapted and reused across future projects, allowing our team at Stitch Heads to leverage them on subsequent titles. Thisenabled us to deliver consistently high-quality experiences while reducing time spent on redundant implementation work.
