SIDE PROJECTS
Below are Side Projects I Have worked on outside of University and in my spare time. Some of these projects were once for University like my script writing but i wanted to continue developing it
Post Apocalyptic level
This Level is a walking simulator, set in a post Apocalyptic world. The players journey was the main focus and also trying to deliver as much narrative as I could in a short level.
Abandoned Train yard
This level was made to expand my experiences with different themes and styles. The level was first person and where the player had to escape the train yard, but there are terrible monsters leaking in the dark.
Script Writing
I wrote this script as part of one of my second year module but i wanted to carry on writing this. I write about the camera angles and movements as well, as i find it fun to visualize it.
Post Apocalyptic level
I made this level with the intent to develop my skills as a Level design and my skills working on terrain/landscape. This level the player only walks and looks around. To make the player always know where to go I used poppy flowers to direct the player in the right direction. This level also has two separate paths to give more freedom to the player .
Each path also has it own narrative, as I have written and placed letters around the paths, one paths has one characters set of letter and the other has the other characters set of letters. there is also scripted events like a deer crossing the path or a Jet Airliner flying over head. This was to create memorable experience for the player.
I set a deadline of 1 week for this project.
Abandoned Train Yard Level
With this level was made to create a playable area with multiple paths the player can take.
Because this level is set at night time, I used lights to direct the player through this train yard. the lights will also help the player sneak around the monsters as the best route for the player is always a well lit area.
I made this during my first year at University.
Script Writing - 'A Nocturnal Dream'
This was part of second year module Content Creation Techniques and I chose Script Writing . This meant that I had to produce a GDD as well as two cinematic scripts. one being an intro script and another being a key moment Script.
Because I really enjoyed this module I continued to develop the script and have it as side project I can work on whenever I want. I am still writing and changing things to this day. I am also still learning and developing my skills when it comes to writing narratives.
The story follows - 'Year 2224. The story follows a cold killer, who kills for whoever hires him. But one contract changes everything. The job is simple kill Jack Fernsby.
