CGD Week 11 – 12: Architectural Expansion: Columns, Cover & Verticality

 

Stylization Reference

Continued modelling of architectural structures in Blender, focusing on iterating a variety of columns and beams.


Further refined and tested the level layout by adding key combat cover elements and enhancing environmental details to reinforce the ruined aesthetic. These details were designed to integrate smoothly with the overall level design, creating more engaging terrain — for example, collapsed pillars not only serve as visual storytelling but can also function as pathways connecting all three layers of the level.

CGD Week 7 – 8: Modular Modelling & Layered Layouts

Image
Started Detailed Environment Modelling Began modelling the basic architectural structures in Blender. Since the environment is set in ancient ruins, the models need to have a worn and broken brick texture. Designed old bricks as the smallest modular unit. By deforming and combining them, I gradually built larger architectural components from the small modules. Based on the previous greybox level layout as reference, I started recreating the level using the new modular assets. During this process, I considered key level design elements such as line of sight between floors, vertical connectivity, and flow between different layers, in order to finalize the vertical structure of the environment.

CGD Week 13 – 15: Final Pass: Materials, Unity Integration & Final Playtesting

Image
I have been focusing on material creation, Unity export, and level testing during this time. Stone textures with  Shader Editor   Used Shader Editor in Blender to create multiple stylised materials suitable for a low poly aesthetic, focusing on stone textures. Marked seams &  unwrapped UV maps Marked seams and unwrapped UV maps for complex-shaped models in preparation for exporting into Unity. Final appearance of the Elemental Stone Elemental Grenades Designed and modelled elemental grenades based on the concept of miniature Elemental Stones that release energy upon breaking. Created the arena walls to reinforce the feel of a ruined battleground or coliseum. Stylised material result in Blender Finished the entire environment setup in Blender, then exported all assets into Unity, where materials were reassigned and environmental details were refined. Exported into Unity Performed testing from a third-person player perspective in Unity, adjusted the map scale to suit 4-...
