First Individual Engine Project

This was my first individual game project built on the custom engine developed at the end of CS 529 Game Engine. The project gave me a complete, compact environment for connecting engine systems to an actual playable game.

Tower-Defense Foundations

The game included simple enemies, maze pathing, defensive placement, and a damage system that penalized the player when enemies escaped through the route. Its small scope allowed me to focus on completing the full gameplay loop.
