In #leveldesign we have a term called 'The Gap' which is short for The Gap Between Expectation And Results' as the player will take the path of least resistance. So as #gamedev we add in challenges that alter/extend their path. As you see in this example (1/2)

For those worrying about when making #leveldesign projects but do not have mechanics, you can use simple prototypes to get your vision across. In my #GodOfWarRagnaroek I do not have climbing in my character but I use a simple teleportation to show a quick transition #gamedev

Some awesome #leveldesign in #Control as they present the player with a T-junction which has a 50/50 usually. But by adding a carpet, showing the door frame and use of lighting we are pulled to the right. #gamedesign #gamedev #architecture

When creating your #leveldesign metrics are important. Generally (Not a rule) one floor is 4m high, especially for TP as we need to consider the camera being included for the height as well as the player themselves. We can change these to play with players emotions #gamedesign

When adding alternate paths to your level (flank routes or shortcuts) avoid players doing a 180 on themselves. It can cause confusion and dampen the flow of your level. #leveldesign #gamedesign #gamedev #tips #indiedev

What impresses me most about #Cyberpunk is that the “dungeons” (dance clubs, hotels, sleazy bars) have many ways to approach and complete the objective, yet they look as good as on-rails games. I liked this mission by @MaxPears and I would love to see the blockout of it one day

With #PhantomLiberty launched just want to congratulate all my former colleagues on what they have achieved and happy I got to play a small role in making it. Incredible feeling to see all the love it has been receiving #gamedev #leveldesign

Vantage points in #leveldesign are a great tool for us, to allow players to see the level and the objective. Helps the players plan and form strategies #gamedev #gamedesign #indiedev

This quote applies to #leveldesign and a great #tip to help encourage exploration. In #ZeldaBotW #Zelda your camera 🎥 view only shows you so much. Yet when you glide. You can see more. Keep this in mind when making your OW #gamedesign #gamedev #nintendo #indiedev

I love this #leveldesign composition with all the negative space of the sky, how the landmark is round while foreground objects are square and then the funnel layout to guide players #game #gameart #gamedesign

A #leveldesign #tip to help players build a mental map is to have a view of the same space from a different angle and use a local landmark (the lights in this case) and for me the fact you see your previous spot shows progress #gamedev #gamedesign #MadeWithUnity #Unity

A #leveldesign #tip once you have your landmark, make sure you frame it correctly. Using the leading lines of the buildings and path while not having a cluttered skyline lead player’s eyes. #gamedesign #gamedev #indiedev #architecture

A #leveldesign #tip to help divide spaces up you don’t always need rooms. To make areas feel separate you use things as pillar to create a volume, separate by raising or lowering the floor and have props for that area #gamedesign #gamedev #game #gameart #indiedev
