+                it to form a successful startup. I learned a lot about how a

+                frameworks in C++ with inheritance both to blueprints and
+                further C++ sub-classes, covering concepts such as all the AI
+                using unreal's tools, puzzle implementation, shader
+                implementation using noise and more. Most of the mechanics for
+                which I was responsible, used a variety of vector and
+                positional mathematics to implement.

+                  Here I created an AI that guards an arena. The puzzle part
+                  of this boss was based on trying to get the ai to get a
+                  chain stuck on pillars left around the arena reducing the
+                  range it could navigate. I did this by calculating the
+                  distance between the previous attachment point and the next
+                  and reducing the available navigatable circumference of the
+                  tiger appropriately. Since this was my first more
+                  complicated AI, I now know that It would have been far
+                  easier to restrict the AI's movement through the use of a
+                  more complex steering system rather than calculating where
+                  it should end up.
