After finishing University I started a project to improve my level design. I am currently working on creating a level based on the mechanics and current level design in The Last of Us. 

I am using this project as a way to learn industry standard level design skills such as well as refreshing my skills.​

​

For the project I created a level, similar to the Pittsburgh level present within the game.

I used a template called Advanced Locomotion System V4.0 on Unreal Engine 4.27.2 for the movement and character system.

​

I learnt different skills whilst working on this project that will be able to be transferred to future projects.

• The importance of affordances and signifiers within level design.

• Leading lines.

• Cinematic design.

• Breadcrumb technique to drip feed the player useful resources.

• Landmarks.

• Creating objectives and narrative to keep the player interested.
