Tron Add-On by Syclone Studios

This Add-On was developed by Syclone Studios in collaboration with Disney Games. The Add-On features an overworld invasion by forces from the GRID. Players are able to use classic TRON vehicles and take the fight to the enemy by entering the GRID.

About

The Tron Add-On, released as collaboration with Disney for the launch of TRON Ares brings the GRID to the overworld. Portals structures spawn across the overworld bringing invading Red Gurad enemies for the player to fight. Fighting these enemies provides the player with data shards allowing them to access the GRID and take the fight to the enemy. The GRID features an in-world UI system used to upgrade and unlock new gear, play GRID Runs, and decrypt encrypted shards.

My Role

I was the lead developer on the project and oversaw a team of three people during the course of development. My focus areas, to name a few, were the GRID system, Recognizer Boss, Player State Management System, GRID Runs, and much more!

The GRID system was a dynamic structure placement and state management system designed to allowed the seamless creation and destruction of concurrent per-player visible in-world structures to facilitate a variety of gameplay objectives.

The Recognizer is a massive, twenty block wide boss features several complex attacks that pushes the limits of how big entities can be in Minecraft Bedrock. It's visible from any distance and can track and target the player across vast distances. It's per-player instanced to ensure constant visibility and dynamic action.
