  • Amongst The Rubbles is a little game I created for a personal project. My work was mainly oriented on the level design in the project. 

  • The assets in the game were not designed by me.

  • The game is intended to be a simple game (walking simulator) with an emphasis on the atmosphere in a vast environment to explore.

  • Regarding the level design, I mostly had difficulty finding a way to guide the player on the critical path. Following a lot of thinking I decided to place red road flares to guide the player on the path. 

  • Also, I tried to level the difficulty and make it gradual .

  • I wanted the player to go through only one path to reach the end, so I decided to create a chokepoint right before the end.

  • The level objective is not immediately visible from the start, but when the player is in the city center he can easily see the lights of a lighthouse which is the point of interest on the map.

  • I tried not to fall into the classic map creation problem: the classic 3 lanes to follow, but I resigned myself and I did what I find cliché in map design. Also, when designing the map I wanted there to be 3 unique environment types: the suburb, the city center and the port / beach.
