#+TITLE: Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon #+SLUG: 02 [[url_for_img:static,file=images/cv/pexels-photo-7019376.jpeg][Photo by cottonbro from Pexels]] Transformers was built on top of the technology we already had in place from [[url_for:cv,slug=01][Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light]] so it really felt like we hit the ground running with this one. As with before I tried to get involved with every part of the development, but again fell in with the UI. One task I had was to update to a new UI system that provided a little more flexibility. Unfortunately there were also a number of issues with the system in the way of bugs and missing features, so I worked closely with the developer who created the new UI solution to identify the problems, and improve it. Additionally, I wrote the vehicle handling for the transformers. I tried a few different handling models until we decided that the simplest one felt the best with the gameplay, and the mobile touch controls. I also created tools for designers to be able to tweak the handling. [[url_for_img:static,file=images/cv/photo-1578652520385-c05f6f3b5de3.jpeg][Photo by Aditya Rathod on Unsplash]]
