  • Programmed a kite system that allows realistic physics while flying a kite, including mechanics of releasing and rewinding kite strings.

  • Implemented a realistic wind system that can grant kite momentum or causes it to fail down. 

  •  Digitally recreated and combined two Ancient Chinese landscape paintings to one well-polished game background image.
