急募!まおう

Programmer/ Technical Artist

急募!まおう is a 2D mobile strategy tower defense game and the sequel to まおう(笑). Players take on the role of the Maou, raising monsters to fend off human attacks. During my time at JOE, I was involved in the early stages of development as the lead programmer and technical artist. I also contributed to most of the game mechanics and system design. I established the core game structure, defined the art production pipeline, and managed the project's various branches using Bitbucket.

Character Behavior

For the character's attack pattern, I used an inheritance-based approach. I first created a simple, generic attack template and then extended it through inheritance to develop various behavior patterns. Before I left, I had expanded this to a total of eight distinct behavior patterns. I kept the design simple and highly extensible, ensuring seamless integration with interfaces and making future expansions of character attack behaviors easy.

A* Pathfinding

I used the A* Pathfinding algorithm as the foundation for movement and controlled different methods of generating path points to create diverse character movement behaviors.
