My name is Alex Dempsey and I was one of the Programmers for Cavin' Hats. The Cavin' Hats project seemed like to completely flew by. Despite that I'm very happy with how the project came out. I would estimate spending 15 hours on the project. I mainly focused on trying to learn how Blueprint Interfaces as well as Actor Components and Scene components work and intertwine together.

I was tasked with creating the light detection system as well as lasers which was implemented throughout the puzzles. I would say that the most difficult part of the project was the laser system. When creating the lasers I ended up following a tutorial somewhat blindly and ended up missing part of what they did. This caused me to have to go through the code and fully understand how everything works and attempt to bug fix everything, In the end I did find the problem and was able to fix the Laser system. I know ways in which I can improve upon the system which I will hopefully implement throughout future projects.

I learned how to implement code with multiple different people within this project as well. I did not realize that multiple people working on the code could end up causing as many problems, but luckily i found this out quickly so i did not have to continue messing things up. I am most proud of the usage of BPIs within the project. This is the second project I have used BPIs in and this time i feel like I have begun to really understand how they really work.
