Overview

Forgiven is an arena for Co-op Kaiju Horror Cooking's Versus mode, in which players are tasked with collecting
​food & preparing recipes for their team's Kaiju while trying to stop the enemy team from doing the same.
​
As the gamemode was already shipping with two fairly large and branching arenas aimed at supporting larger player counts, Forgiven was designed as a smaller & more interconnected playspace for 2v2 or even 1v1 matches.

Development Role

 Forgiven  was created entirely as a solo effort, using assets built for the game's main Co-operative mode.
As the developer of Forgiven, I accomplished the following:

• Whiteboxed & tested the rough layout, paying attention to player routing & key engagement areas
• Implemented all map logic such as item & enemy spawn areas, scripted interactables, etc
• Iterated on the initial layout until reaching a solid final version that was balanced for both small & large lobbies
• Implemented all art and environment design by using and re-purposing existing assets

Gameplay
