First room The player starts in a medium sized room stood next to a ladder coming down from a sewer grate. The first thing the player sees is are the railings, currently displayed as red rectangles. These railings are leading lines (Shaver, 2018) that will guide the player through this Read more…

I added simple indicators as to the locations of various assets that will be in the level. I have coloured them red so that they stand out from the rest of the level.

I have further developed the sewer level blockout I finished the jumping area and put a ceiling on it. I added a small brown patch beneath the tree to look like dirt. I then added the final area of the level. It is a large platform that will have a Read more…
