Level Designer
Role:
- Conceptualize a base 3D environment layout to support gameplay.
- Communicate with 3D and conceptual artists to achieve a coherant gameplay and aesthetics combination.
- Script and spawn all enemies and events.
Accomplishments:
During my time on this project we released multiple successfull and well received updates. I was able to quickly establish a new workflow for the different needs of this project. A first draft of a 3D layout would be done on Sketchup. This could be quickly iterated on and redone in 3DS max, where artists would rework it. This gave me sufficient modeling skill so that I could later work from paper to 3DS max directly.
Work Examples
Base 3D concept created using Sketchup
After several revisions I recreated the level in 3DS max. The 3D artists then did an art pass; this is the result.
Arena Dungeon (Haunted Sanctum) after several iterations and art pass by 3D artists.
Arena Dungeon (Howling Canyon) after several iterations and art pass by 3D artists.
