A one minute trailer of Mountain Valley.
One of the villages that offer character interaction and a detailed environment.
Another perspective of a village that offers more detail.
Assets I placed to the side of the map so players don't run in too many empty, boring fields around the map.
One of the many side routes on the map. I wanted to break up the map and give them something else to explore that wasn't only filled with buildings and rocks.
When designing the map, I didn't want the player to get bored quickly, so I made several different types of environments with varying types of assets. The snowy mountain in the background causes the player feel like they're in another area than the rest of the map, and the vast boulders offer something to look at from a distance as well as give the player a different perspective of the map if they make it on top of the boulders.
Another perspective of the map while on top of rocks.
A short route around boulders allows players to explore beyond the main walking trail.
A view from a bridge within the game.
One of the many villages.
A side view from the main path shows the only bridge and a village off to the side.
This is a side route where I used different assets and a beautiful view for them to roam off the main path
A village the player will come across when they spawn in the game for the first time.
Early concept of the level while I was working on a edge of the map
The original spawn of the player before I made some of the final changes.
Studying how the foliage looked when placed onto the map for the first time.
A work in progress image that shows an early concept of the game. At this time I was learning what size to make the mountains and how they would look to the player.
A quick sketch of my idea of the map before I started creating assets and executing on level design.
Studying what size the mountains should be.
