Mechanics

Interaction

The player can interact with NPC that he meets to maybe have a quest or a lore discussion. His answers influence the discussion.

LockPicking

The player can pick locks found on window doors and chests. To do that he must find the vibration of the controller by moving the hooks.

Crouch / Hiding

The player can crouch which allows him to pass through tighter spaces and also to be able to hide under decorative elements.

Capacity

The player can charge an ability thanks to the materials he collects, which encourages him to explore and steal. This ability allows him to get rid of a guard and free up access paths. The guard’s hazardous propulsion can create reactions in other AI it can be usefull to disturb some more AIs.

Map

When the player has successfully completed the first part of the mission, he obtains a map of the mansion in which the object he must steal is located.

Level Design

Process - Paper Work

The 1st phase was paper work, then I transferred and clarified it on a 2D numeric map with a document exposing my intentions and the flow of the level, with visual references.

Process - Block Out

Secondly i blocked out with simple geometry to find scale and test player movement.

Process - Modules

After that, I replaced the blockout with modules to make the level clearer and more readable.
