THE FOREVER WINTER
SENIOR GAME DESIGNER
MARVEL RIVALS
Marvel Rivals is a high-octane hero shooter where players dive into intense, team-based battles featuring Marvel’s legendary characters.
OVERVIEW
As part of the Design Team, I took ownership of AI Behaviour, Combat, and Gameplay Systems, expanding their design, tuning, and functionality. Built proof-of-concept prototypes and gameplay mechanics in Unreal Blueprints and C++. Collaborated across design disciplines to shape systemic encounters and gameplay features, ensuring alignment with player experience goal
AI BEHAVIOUR & STEALTH
Improved upon Enemy AI Sensor behavior to create better coherent gameplay for stealth encounters. Enemies now react more accurately to vision, sound, and more. In addition their response time and positional accuracy to locate the player has been approved. Players can now create noise and witness enemies searching the area, communicating, and spreading out around the last known location of the player.

BUDDY COMMAND SYSTEM
Updated the Buddy Recruitment System. Players can now control Buddy’s individually and as a group. As well as the targeted position to defend or attack is more precise to the players direction in which they chose. In terms of Defending, Attacking, Regrouping, and all other general commands, Buddy AI is much more responsive in this updated revision.
SHOOTING RANGE
Was tasked with creating a new zone in the innards, our hub area. I created and had ownership of making a shooting range. This is a space for the player to test out their arsenal of weapons and utility. Here they can practice and figure out what type of weapons and attachments they like before going on their excursions risking their valuables.

UPGRADE SYSTEM
Within the Shooting Range lies an upgrade system. Among these are 3 different tiers of upgrades. The first tier being the base version of the range with a damage testing zone. Here the player can see how much damage their current weapon will do to a target. The second tier is an active shooting range practice with a timer and score system. Here you and your friends can compete on who’s the better marksman. The third tier gives the players live targets. Here you can see how quickly you’re able to take down your enemies.
