Project Overview
Maintaing a large scale platform
with a passionate community
Being 1 of 50 inaugural RBC Gaming Grant winners, I had the opportunity
to apply for one of 5 exclusive internship positions with Enthusiast
Gaming. This led to me joining Addicting Games, the company behind Type
Racer and many of our beloved childhood flash game sites.
Here, I joined the Mope.io team to work on gameplay programming and hone
my front-end web development skills.
My responsibilities ranged from programming gameplay changes/features,
configuring character stats for new game modes, revamping outdated pages
and providing QA support, especially during Mope.io’s IOS/Google Play
store certification process.
During meetings, I was able to provide up-to-date insight on pop culture
and current gaming trends to provide and influence new content ideas for
future gameplay updates
The dev team’s established Agile workflow made use of tools such as
Jira, Git and Slack to facilitate proper inter-departmental
collaboration.
