I was the Lead Developer on Cottage Connections all the way from Concept to Closed-Alpha testing.
The game was developed in collaboration with a designer, artist and a freelance developer.
Everyone contributed to the code base and I was responsible for reviewing their contributions and modifying the architecture to support their features.


When we ran into difficulties with the “off the grid” concept of the game I prototyped a grid based version of the game.
This grid based prototype was scrapped but it helped us to refine the “off the grid” concept.
