THE ASSIGNEMENT
Make a Level Design concept inspired by any piece of media.
OUR INSPIRATION:
Each of the four members of the team picked a different element to make a level on: Air, Water, Earth and Fire. I was in charge of the Earth Level.
The game mechanics in this level:
The Classic Air Scooter from the show, allowing the player to naviguate narrow plateforms and cables
My Role: Level Design, Earth Level
inspirations
EARTH KINGDOM MOUNTAINS: The Level starts at the bottom of a mountain, and the player must climb its side to reach the entrance to a temple hidden into the Mountain.
AVATAR KYOSHI: To prove themselves a Worthy Earth Bender, the player must defeat a spiritual version of Avatar Kyoshi. The temple is garded by some Kyoshi Warriors that try to stop the player from entering their temple
CRYSTAL CATACOMBS: Inspired by the Crystal Catacombs under the Earth Kingdom Castle, the Level ends in a crystal cavern. Its in a room like this one that the player fights against Kyoshi.
PART 1: The Climb
The player climbs on a rocky mountain side to reach the Temple Entrance at the top. Some Kyoshi warriors are guarding the way.
PART 2: The Cave
After entering the temple, the player then has to go through a short cavern-like corridor, where they will encounter a few more Kyoshi Warriors and a few obstacles.
PART 3: The Kyoshi Fight
After the corridor, the player enters the Boss room where they will fight Avatar Kyoshi’s spiritual form. Kyoshi is standing on a big pillar at the center of a cylinder cavern.
The rest of the team:
Each members of the team worked on a different level, and everyone collaborated as a group to make a quick prototype of the character controller. Since the focus of the project was the level design and blocking, the mechanics were not polished nor worked on much.
