ECS


This solo student project was completed over four weeks. We had the freedom to choose our areas of focus and specialization; I chose AI, pathfinding, and modularity. To achieve this, I developed an Entity Component System (ECS) to manage various AIs and entities along with their respective components. With the ECS in place, I created a small game where the objective is to avoid enemies and survive as long as possible.
