Operating Theater

Sythen — Wed, 09 May 2012 10:15:06 +0000

This operating theater is another horror environment and a challenge given to me by Mizsie. The challenge was to create an environment from two perspectives, one with age and one brand new. I took the opportunity to put a lot of effort in individual models, and work on both my baking skills, and shader creation within Unity. This environment is still work in progress.

Unity Assignment: Butterfly

Sythen — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 03:42:00 +0000

This is a work in progress game I am creating for a College Assignment, and a game I created for Mizsie. The game itself is themed around the idea of a ‘relaxing game’, similar to Flower on PS3. I have yet to actually add any sort of negative and positive feedback for the player. So right now all that is available is the Flying area.

Controls:
W,A,S, and D to move.
Space bar to fly.
Mouse to look around the player.
Escape to pause.

Installation:
Simply unzip the file, and run Butterfly_Game.exe

Other Notes:
Butterfly is best viewed in fullscreen, you can choose the quality in the settings menu based on your computer’s quality.
The game itself is also in very early stages and is not completed. Though if you wish to give me any suggestions as to what to add to the game, facebook, or e-mail me at: scott@scottbaker.eu

Outbreak: Condemned

Sythen — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 02:18:53 +0000

Position on Team: Lead Level Designer (Until Late 2010)

Description: It was my job to manage two other level designers on the team, maintain continuity between each level and it’s design and to design larger scale levels.

Software Used: Source SDK, Microbrush 2.

Merrion Lake Warehouse

Sythen — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 02:18:45 +0000

Description: The idea behind this level was simple, build an entire level/environment using Microbrush 2, A brush building tool created to speed up the process of level creation for Brush based level editors. I came up with the initial concept of Merrion Lake Warehouse when on a train, overlooking an abandoned warehouse and decided to make an Arena style level, where the player will have to climb to the top to complete. All of this level is a heavily optimized brush-based level. The only models in this scene are they Ivy, a corpse, and fences outside.

Build Time: I was successful in completing this level faster with Microbrush 2 than in Source SDK.
Overall time to develop with Microbrush 2: 3 days.
Overall Time it would have taken with Source SDK: A week.

Proving that Microbrush 2 is a tool that should be in every brush-based level designers toolbag.
