In this attack, Death spawns a large amount of enemies that he pulls towards himself. Upon reaching him, the enemies are executed and he is healed for a small amount. Death’s fight has been prolonged by the Lead Designer by giving him a large amount of Health, drawing out the fight as powerful builds could easily take him down, though this required a lot of upgrades and luck. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/e1f2648d-5a07-4474-98a0-ba93b8f9a790/Devil+Jam+-+Bad+UI.jpg Devil Jam - Make it stand out The original UI in the first version of the Demo. The 4 columns, 3 row grid has been squished down and inverted into a single row. Many players reported they weren’t even aware of what it represented. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/5303ad35-e62a-4008-b2da-e2a33c1286cf/Devil+Jam+-+Good+UI.jpg Devil Jam - Make it stand out The final version of the UI. The grid is more clear and represents the inventory system 1:1. The player is clearly visible in the center. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/a7b88a49-55b8-4a9f-94c3-db6f34996d33/Devil+Jam+-+Thumbnail.jpg Devil Jam - More Information.

In the original campaign, Doru is chained in the under-croft of the church, yelling about his ravenous hunger. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/b944a3ec-eed6-4a85-8fa0-7a8bde0439cb/Cursed+Strahd+-+Butters+Chained.jpg Cursed Strahd - Writing - Make it stand out The scene from South Park where Butters is chained up in the basement by his father, who (wrongfully) believes his son is now an undead monster. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/2177543a-cbd6-43c3-a679-ad1d12433437/Cursed+Strahd+-+Obsidian.png Cursed Strahd - Writing - Make it stand out Obsidian can show clearly how each page in the database is connected to other pages.

Using twinstick controls, players are able to move and aim simultaneously, allowing quick reactions to the constant threat of incoming enemies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/d69bcbd9-53e7-4984-9384-c6ce97ddc233/SBT+-+Playmaker.png Shootas, Blood & Teef - Level Design - Make it stand out Playmaker introduces a custom visual scripting toolkit that can be used by designers to implement complex behaviours without having to write code themselves. Additionally, programmers can add custom nodes to help expand functionality if needed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/567f39fb-1a40-4b6f-a18c-34d1b5998248/SBT+-+Voidport+Hanger.jpg Shootas, Blood & Teef - Level Design - Make it stand out A player finding a chest of “Teef”, which can be spent in the shop to buy upgrades and new weapons. Above is a destroyed shuttle that was attached to he chains, but took enough damage to be destroyed and fall down, dynamically updating the platforms so enemy AI no longer tries to jump on it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/9dbbdb41-d6e5-47ae-af59-f70a9c683d83/SBT+-+Elevator.png Shootas, Blood & Teef - Level Design - Make it stand out The Player fighting a Space Marine on the elevator platform. The extra platform and boxes were added upon my request so the players had more wiggle room in terms of avoiding enemy projectiles. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/d3aba157-9aa3-474e-a66b-8055e6f229a5/SBT+-+Sewer.jpg Shootas, Blood & Teef - Level Design - Make it stand out A section of the Sewers level that went through many iterations in terms of balancing. Players often struggles with the fight due to the large amount of enemies that spawned during the “Kill Them All!” section where players must kill enemies to fill a bar before they can progress. The solution was to also spawn healing pick-ups before and during the fight. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/7975daca-ab28-4862-b57a-f7be69f57800/SBT+-+Sewers.jpg Shootas, Blood & Teef - Level Design - Make it stand out The Mutant Alligator was tricky to get right. The fights often occurred in small areas, and the hitbox and behaviour had to be carefully tweaked in Playmaker to ensure the fights were fair, challenging and didn’t end with the Alligator getting stuck! The pools of acid were notorious for impacting performance until their length in the z-axis was reduced. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/56f58a2a-b513-435e-9597-cb906c577d46/SBT+-+Genestealer.jpg Shootas, Blood & Teef - Level Design - Make it stand out The Sewers level ended with the “Genestealer” boss fight. Using the many pipes in the level, it would try to repeatedly run into the player, then escape through the sewers in a hit-and-run strategy. The fight was initially way too easy as the Genestealer lacked direct attacks. Adding adds to the fight on higher difficulties and more health allowed me to amp up the difficulty without requiring new animations and attacks for the boss. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/b8b1ba65-0b6c-4831-9a94-2e2ff5c00b6d/SBT+-+Horrik.jpg Shootas, Blood & Teef - Level Design - Make it stand out The fight with Lord Horrik Canorum involves destroying his blue shield first, before the player can damage the actual boss. After some time, the shield regenerates. During the entire fight, Horrik will move from the right side of the screen to the left, pushing the player back and serving as a soft DPS-check. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/2ae458ef-a0be-4596-aaf6-ecb747287689/SBT+-+Baneblade.jpg Shootas, Blood & Teef - Level Design - Make it stand out Four players in co-op fighting the Baneblade, otherwise known as the “Bastion of Valour”. The tanks fires projectiles directly, rams players camping in the bottom, or causes debris to fall from above. Since the AI reacts to player positioning, many new players struggled despite this being the first major boss. Additionally, a second phase is triggered where the fight is equally punishing, requiring precise timing on jumps while handling additional enemies spawning in. A major fix for the difficulty was to spawn a full heal between the two phases of the fight. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61a47ee7bb6d752d60921ee7/36fadeeb-85bc-4452-bce6-9611d2fec9e4/SBT+-+Thumbnail.jpg Shootas, Blood & Teef - Level Design - More Information.
