Top 10 Mod for Barotrauma with 150k+ Subscribers.
Started during my high school years and actively maintained for nearly four years, this project is a transformative modification for the submarine survival game Barotrauma. What began as a solo hobby grew into a collaborative effort with a team of up to five developers.
The mod overhauls game assets and introduces new mechanics using the game's Lua API and XML definitions. It addresses gameplay gaps by adding entertaining and functional mechanics that were previously missing from the vanilla experience.

Modding often involves tedious workflows. To solve the inefficiency of restarting the game to preview changes, I designed and built a standalone Character Editor in the summer of 2025.
This tool leverages Python and React, utilizing AI to simulate the game's rendering logic and physics engine accurately. It allows developers to edit and preview characters in real-time without the overhead of the full game client, significantly boosting productivity.
