Maaan, that’s insane. It was more than 4 months since the last time that I posted on my blog. Loads of things happened and the game was finally done, and so were the classes at Vancouver Film School. I couldn’t update this before with the ending of the development cycle of NML, the presentations and also classes. So, here I am now with a SUPER UPDATE to cover a big part of what happened during these last months. So take a chair and read it! 😉 This post will be presented in 2 different parts. I hope I can answer some questions for the people who were waiting for news. THE LAST TERMS Last time that I covered our school...

posted by Matheus Pitillo
Hey ya! Milestone 02 was completed and now we are working hard for Alpha Phase. (YAY!) I’m here today to present the Level Design behind National Mech League. Finally, the part that I am doing. 😛 Mostly everything that you are going to see here was created during the Pre-Production Phase, but after the last few weeks we had a lot of changes in the Design of the game, so the Arena and the Sections needed to be transformed too. So here I am with the result of these transformations. 😀 The Environment To better explain our Level Design, first I will talk a little bit about the whole universe around it.
