Happy #Blocktober! Will be posting some gameplay and systems design from #GodOfWarRagnarok here! I got the amazing chance to work on so many little narrative moments across the game in #GodOfWarRagnarok. Lets look at the Train Align minigame moment today! James , while working on the level wanted to invoke the feeling of someone spotting you when parallel parking (lol) and so we did! We had to make sure the player always had the choice to agree/disagree with Atreus’ directions, while still maintaining a max time for the minigame. This led us to design it so the train actually started and ended in the same location 😉 in order to guarantee the number of moves the player could do (hence the camera angle). While this limited the steps, we still had to have unique game states for each time you visited those alignment locations. Can’t end this post without calling out the months and months of back and forth and amazing animation and tech help from Avery Adams to accomplish so many interdependent syncs!

Happy #Blocktober folks! I got the amazing chance to work on water level mechanics in Svartalfheim in #GodOfWarRagnarok. Lets look at the Water Sluices! While we could have supported larger, baked sluice setups, we opted for a modular approach for each sluice piece that activated the water mechanics at runtime (shown below). This meant that the entire system’s feature set needed to be supported within the 3m piece! Even though Maintaining visual fidelity while making sure the pieces communicate effectively was a big challenge, This decision allowed quick iteration for our level design team who was allowed to move and tune sluice setups in real-time. Have to callout Jon Hickenbottom taking this head on and making and informing so many setups that fully realize the potential in the most fun development experience I have had

Since it's #blocktober and it's the release of #HaloReckoning season 5 I'll share the block out of Forbidden that was done with our internal tool! This is a couple iterations before final so you will see some minor differences from the final. #leveldesign #Halo #gamedev #proud
