Key Strengths
- Improves combat readability by designing hit VFX that communicate hit confirmation, damage type, and damage amount
- Iterates effectively using QA/playtest feedback and prioritizes fixes via Jira
- Strong performance-minded VFX approach (faking effects, quads over complex meshes, simple shaders, minimizing transparency)
- GPU-optimized environment VFX solution (low-poly mesh + shader using UV channels/vertex colors) to replace costly particle systems
- Cross-functional collaboration with design, art/creative direction, and tech art from block-in through polish
- Maintains visual clarity by pushing back on overly flashy direction when it would harm gameplay readability
