Amalgam: Gate is a nontraditional card game where you perform moves by scanning your cards in real life to make your character on screen fight! This game was created in 4 weeks with the stipulation that our product could not use traditional control schemes.

Quality Assurance
Tested bugs non stop in order to ensure that our product was as bug free as possible.
Cuts
I simplified the concept to be reduced down to its core functionality so as to better showcase the idea. Our original scope would have pushed the team too hard and I wanted to make sure their health was at the forefront of my concerns.
Managed Testing
This was a difficult game to test as it needed two individuals to play and cameras to be properly utilized. I governed the testing process and made sure players understood the rules so the process went smoothly. I also made sure we sourced equipment such as extra phones to utilize as makeshift webcams so we could open more testing stations.
Organization
I kept us on a tight timeline to track our progress and make sure we kept up with stakeholder expectations. Our product was very different and I wanted to make sure at every milestone that we were keeping at a solid pace.
