My Responsibilities
I worked at robot entertainment as the game development intern for six months. During that time I was on the Age of Empires Online development team. My main responsibility was to implement new features for the game's chat system. I also worked on gameplay features, UI elements, tools for designers, and bug fixing. I worked closely with designers, producers and artists on implementation of new features. I also took part in playtesting and the game pitching process. 98% of the code that I wrote while at Robot Entertainment was written in C++.
