Core Game Loop / Mechanics
Card Based Loadout
Every match feels fresh and unpredictable thanks to randomized card options and evolving loadouts. Cards serve as the core of your strategy, offering an array of weapons, buffs, and gadgets. During the preparation phase, a shop displays randomized card options, ensuring each round requires new tactics and adaptations.

Level Design
Initial Guidelines:
- Ample Vertical Spaces — Players should have multiple ways to move vertically.
- No Sharp or Tight Corners — Accommodates high movement speeds.
- Symmetrical Maps — Ensures balanced, competitive play.
- Falling Off the Map — Players can be knocked or jump off edges.
Map exceeded optimal size, delaying enemy encounters.
Reduced scale but insufficient obstacles; players gravitated toward center.
Introduced blockout metrics to refine scale.
Refined layout with improved spatial flow.
Adopted a brutalist architectural style, highlighting concrete materials to establish a stark, grim atmosphere — perfectly complementing the abstract nature of the levels.
Movement System
Vect0r's movement system takes inspiration from the Source Engine, turning traditional "exploits" — like air-strafing, surfing, and bunny hopping — into core features. Recreated in Unity with our own spin, the system offers advanced mobility options such as sliding, auto-bhopping, and rocket jumps.
I also developed various movement gadgets, including jump pads, dashes, and double jumps. Each weapon has unique recoil that can alter a player's trajectory, adding another layer of skill and strategy to combat.
