Senior Capstone 2020

This is our Senior Capstone from DePaul 2020. It is a skater-shooter hybrid that took inspiration from Jet Set Radio, Tony Hawk Pro Skater and Superhot.

I was a level designer for this project and worked mainly on crafting the first floor of the skate park. I took inspiration from fighting games in an abstract way as I designed the level to have various optional connecting points. I compared this to fighting games' combo strings in which players start off on one thing and then make a split second decision on how they want to continue the combo. For instance, players could land a grind or miss the grind to head somewhere else.

I also did more texture work towards the end of the project which will be showcased below alongside the layout of the first level
