My old level sucked, so I fixed it - FULL Level Design (1/4)

For my upcoming game which is a sequel to Burden of Proof, I have a chance to evaluate old scenes that I made back in 2018 and reinterpret them for this new project using everything I've learned about art and design since then. Recreating levels from BOP has been a bit of a learning process, but one that was definitely more rewarding after seeing the results! In this series, I'll walk you through this process step by step and show you the exact decisions I make during my level design process. The two sessions I recorded have been edited down into 4 parts, and at the end of this walkthrough, we'll be able to compare Cross' Law Office before and after I've remastered it. So without further delay, let's get building!

In this part, I go through the process of setting up a reference to the old level geometry and creating a base structure that matches it. Then, I set up the lighting, atmospheric settings, and core systems that compose a level in Burden of Truth. Finally, I set up some basic materials for the building, and begin to carve out details that will pay off later. Next time, I'll be finalizing the structure and beginning to add some basic detail objects that will define the overall mood, so stay tuned!
