Find Your Rhythm is a short 2D platformer I created on my own for a project in a class emphasizing the foundational principles of Game Design. I created detailed design documents and whiteboxes for each level with the goal of creating a cohesive experience with a satisfying progression for the player.
Level Design Process
My process for designing Level 1 of Find Your Rhythm, which I applied throughout the game.
Basic paper sketch
Initial whitebox constructed in Unity with primitive assets
Revised whitebox constructed after results from playtests
Final level with all art assets implemented
Documentation
First 4 pages of Level 1's Design Brief, which outlines the game's overall structure, goals, and mechanics, as well as giving a runthrough of the full level from start to finish.
Art Assets
Although it wasn't required for the project, I also created all of the game's art assets (excluding the font used throughout) myself in Photoshop CC.
