Overcrowded Tycoon (Unity, C#, Javascript)
Overcrowded Tycoon is a F2P game of tycoon genre for mobile where we’ve to handle a theme park. It has two main characteristics different than competence: behaviour based on physics and visitors use emoticons with a big diversity of emotions supported. So, apart of common mechanics already known like expanding, improving and evolving the park and rides, it’s key how organize the park to optimize the visitors flow, keeping them as happy and comfortable possible, to increase the expense they’ll make in the park.
It’s published in Google Play and Apple Store. In this project, in which I was a bit more than a year as senior/lead, my work was:
- Refactoring code base to use a dependency injector for Unity (Zenject).
- Structure code to allow isolated common and specific parts to allow adding more parks, along with a scalable configuration.
- Refactoring rewards system trying to improve scalability and maintenance.
- Integration of gacha and loot boxes system with specific logic.
- Integration of a BaaS (ChilliConnect) as platform for authentication, account management and backup for user data.
- Implementation of specific modules on server (Javascript).
- Integration of third party libraries for authentication: Facebook, Game Center and Google Play Games.
- Support to save date on disk and remotely on several devices pointing to same account.
- Integration of deeplink and referrals platform (Adjust) to reward existing users which brought new ones to the game.
- Implementation of anticheating techniques and analytics.
- Implementation of specific game features: spooky park, in-game reports, UI…
- Onboarding and supervision of new programmers in the project.
- Support, maintenance and development from stages previous to soft launch until global launch.
Evo Pop (Unity, C#)
Evo Pop is a puzzle F2P game for mobile based on physics and with progression by levels. Each match, we can interact with our group of “Evo”, creatures with special powers, with the objective to defeat the rest of opponents (eating them, being bigger size, or pushing them out of the map land) or multiplying our “Evo” to achieve certain number before our opponents and before the end of level. If there isn’t a winner when level finishes, the player with more Evo alive wins.
It’s published in Google Play and Apple Store. My work in the months I was part of the team developing the project was:
- Add 4 game modes:
- Acid rain: keep Evo covered to avoid being affected by acid rain happening every amount of time.
- Drowning: water level goes up/down randomnly, having to keep your Evo away from drowning in water.
- Faster: mana generates faster for certain amount of time, generating faster matches.
- Macedonia: the objective becomes to feed Evos with fruit randomnly falling from sky with different size. Only if your Evo are bigger than the fruit, they will be able to eat it.
- Hexmap optimization: apply pooling techniques linked to camera position to allow infinite maps.
- New levels integration.
- Support and maintenance of the app.
