Ember's Oath

Game AI Programmer - Graduate Capstone Project

Team Size: 5

Tools: Unreal Engine 5, C++, Perforce

Project Length: 7+ Months (May 2025 - Present)

Project Contributions:

Programmed enemy behavior with a hybrid Behavior Tree and Utility System approach, especially during combat. This was done in a designer-friendly, data-oriented way inspired by the Infinite Axis Utility System from Guild Wars 2.
To learn more about how I created the Utility System's architecture, you can read about it here in this easily digestible technical document that I wrote here!
