My Contribution
Gameplay Feature - Non-Euclidean Scaling
My main contribution aside from managing the Git repository was recreating the Optical Illusion scaling effect that is present within the game.
When holding an object, the script will fire a boxcast from the player's centre view point. Then it will calculate the distance between the the player and where the boxcast stops. Next, it will divide this "line" into an assignable amount set by the developer and move the held object along the lines, scaling it based on its original and current distance from the player. Note: The higher the amount the lines are divided, the more accurate but also more taxing the calculation gets.
If at any point while moving along the lines the held object detects collision, it stops moving further until the player moves the box and a new calculation begins.
