Description:

Zenith is a third-person action-adventure game where players play as a young teenage girl Su, exploring and fighting against mysterious robots in Asian style gardens and palaces.​

​

Details: 

• Fast-paced combat, and fast & free movement (Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee)

• Intense fightings and flexible strategies (Play in your own style)​

• Beautiful and dangerous environment 

• Combination of multiple enemies

​

What I did for this project:​

• Working in a team of 4​

• Writing Design Documents during pre-production​

• Designing levels in Adobe Illustrator​

• Building levels in Unreal Engine 4​

• Adjusting the lighting for levels in Unreal Engine 4​

• 3D modeling environmental assets / UV unwrapping / Texturing assets in Maya​

• Designing the combat system with teammates

​

What I learned from this project:

• The grappling system is the core mechanism of this game, affecting the combat style and level design​

• But the combat system is still the fundamental core system of an action game. So it is necessary to figure out the combat system as early as possible​

• Keep testing and iterating rapidly. Always test the new design as soon as possible​

• Open to all the suggestions, analyzing and testing them, then selecting the good parts to add into the game​

• Communicating with teammates all the time and working together to find a workable solution
