WILD MAGIC

DESIGN OVERVIEW

PROJECT STATUS: Active Development (Collaborative Prototype)

Wild Magic is a technical exploration into **high-variance systemic combat**. My goal was to architect a modular spellcasting framework that prioritizes player experimentation and emergent interactions between elemental systems.

By utilizing a **data-driven architecture** in Unreal Engine 5, I developed a system where spells are not hard-coded, but rather assembled from discrete logic modules. This allows for a "combinatorial explosion" of gameplay possibilities.

TECHNICAL MILESTONES

• Modular System Architecture: Developed a proprietary "Spell-Node" system allowing for real-time modification of projectile physics and elemental logic.
• Systemic Interaction Matrix: Scripted a reactivity layer where environmental variables (water, wind, temperature) dynamically alter spell properties.
• Sensory Integration: Owned the creation of Systemic VFX and SFX logic to ensure every magical interaction provided high-fidelity player feedback.
• Lead Production Ownership: Managed the technical design pipeline and collaborative workflow for a multi-disciplinary team of seven developers.
