Perdition

I worked with another level designer to create 4 unique 3D levels, each offering about 10-15 mins of gameplay. I was responsible for developing levels from concept, to whitebox, through many iterations, and then handing them off to an artist once they were finalized. I used a variety of tools in UE4 to sculpt landscapes, populate environments with structures and foliage, guide players using lighting and scene composition, choreograph narrative events, and design challenging combat scenarios, and engage players of multiple playstyles to explore and overcome challenges. Finally, I used custom tools made by teammates which empowered my ability to design combat encounters and script objective messages.

My work as a level designer empowered Perdition by providing...

• three complete and visually-distinct levels (plus one prototype of a level which isn't in the final game)
• thoughtfully-composed environments, which guide the player through the space and teach new gameplay mechanics
• an assortment of combat encounters using a variety of 3D spaces and enemy types to challenge the player
• narrative events through which Perdition can build its world and deliver Beckett's tragic tale against the tinmen
• detailed overhead maps for each level which communicate design intent for other designers and artists
