RESPONSIBILITIES
Project Manager, 3D Asset creator, basic C# programmer
As Project Manager, I was in charge of assigning tasks, organizing the Trello Scrum board, and staying in communication with team members to ensure efficient and smooth progression towards each one- or two-week Sprint goal. On top of Project Manager, I also created many assets for in-game use, involving interactable prop objects and environmental objects. I also coded simple scripts in C# to allow for gameplay elements such as interactive puzzles.
NOTE: HUSH requires either an Oculus Quest (1 or 2) or an Oculus Rift, an Oculus Link cable (if using a Quest), and a powerful computer for best results.
