Sacred 3

As a Level Designer on “Sacred 3” I was responsible for developing several levels for the main campaign from initial conception, along with taking ownership of several others that required rework, to finally bring them all to a shippable quality. I was also the leading Level Designer in charge of concepting and designing the levels for the Underworld DLC and worked on and contributed toward the Ork Homeland DLC.

My key responsibilities on these levels were: -

• Develop, document and maintain level concepts

• Working with concept artist and environment artist to develop the visual theme and style of each level

• Creating level content according to concepts, create white box layouts and rework them with tile based art assets

• Concept and integrate gameplay mechanics; gameplay logic, enemy setups, background animations and camera angles/transitions into level designs using in-house tools

• Liaise with Game Designers, VFX artists and Sound Designer to develop concepted gameplay mechanics for the levels

• Liaising with the Narrative Designer on how best to integrate story into the levels

• Maintenance, balancing, tweaking, optimizing and bug fixing of levels

• Working with programmers to develop the new camera system and championing its use where appropriate. This feature is seen most through out the Underworld DLC levels

Directly below are play through videos of all the levels I developed from initial conception through to final shipping quality. Beneath those are videos of the levels that I took ownership of for re-working to a final shipping quality.
