#leveldesign tip of the day! 🥳 T-Junctions A junction is good, because it gives choice and Player Agency. But they're hard to make and can come out bland, boring, pointless, disorienting or frustrating. Be wary of all your areas in #gamedev! tiny things add up to a fun game! ❤️

#leveldesign tip of the day! 🙂🙃 Corners! We want to break sightlines as often as possible, therefore ALL corners are inherently for a good cause, But corners can also create a great deal of confusion and mess with the mental map of the player. We need them. We love them.❤️

#leveldesign tip of the day!! 🤪 Lets explore corners a bit more with a snippet from the oh-so-classic HL2 by Valve Game is growing old, but everyone knows and loves it so its a good design case-study! oh, there are also some #gamedev and #gamedesign thoughts here. 😘

#leveldesign tip of the day! 📯 STAIRS AND RAMPS Whenever we have the opportunity to make a stair, ramp, doorway or bridge, then all level designers and world builders should scream with happiness! :) They are excellent tools for guidance and flowcontrol!

#leveldesign tip of the day! 🤠 GATES & GATING!! Gently massage the player to do what you want and make them care for your game! 😋

Made a 122 page Level Design document where I gather useful senior dev knowledge. The goal was to gather up all this knowledge in one place. Both for learning and as reference. Hopefully people find it useful and any feedback is welcome 😄 Link: docs.google.com/document/d/1fA…
