Skincare Recommendation System

Tools: Python, Tkinter, CSV, CLI, and GUI.

• Designed a skincare product recommendation system that allows users to filter and search for products based on skin type and ingredient preferences.
• Built both a command-line and graphical user interface (Tkinter) for broader accessibility and user friendly interaction.
• Structured product data using CSV files, and implemented logic for dynamic filtering, input validation, and search functionality.
• Applied object-oriented principles to separate concerns across database creation, CLI operations, and GUI components.
• Practiced version control and modular design to support future scalability.

Labubu Jump – 2D Platformer Game (MIPS Assembly)

Tools: MARS Simulator, MIPS Assembly, Graphics Programming.

• Built a fully interactive side scrolling platformer game in MIPS Assembly using low-level graphics memory manipulation and syscall based I/O.
• Implemented game mechanics, including jump physics, collision detection, input handling, dynamic platforms, and score tracking, using hardware registers.
• Designed a modular structure with separate functions for rendering game elements (e.g., Labubu, platforms, water), managing player movement, and updating screen memory.
• Optimized game loop logic and memory allocation to maintain responsiveness in a low-resource environment.
• Strengthened understanding of CPU architecture, stack/register usage, and control flow at the assembly level.
