Arena Showdown

ABOUT

This level is intended to be small but big enough to move around, similar to that of Nuketown from Call Of Duty: Black Ops

Arena Showdown

Description

The top photo is my first attempt in expanding the level, from there to down below is my overhaul to the level feeling overall much bigger and more engaging with other players. This level also introuduces our pickup feature. 

Challenges

The biggest challenge I had when re-designing the Arena Showdown was it's size. The top photo of the map was when I made my first attempt at increasing the size however players still found it to be too small. When I then began to expand it players found it more delightful to traverse in a bigger space, but felt less inclined to play on the map. As time I started to realize that this map is tough to balance between fun and spacious at the same time. Thankfully my team added in two new features to spice things up for the map to feel more engaging. Those features are our "Death Zone" and "Power-Ups".
