Dungeon Defenders Eternity - Level Designer - 2014
I worked remotely on Dungeon Defenders Eternity, I created assets both 3D and 2D for minor sections and worked with artists for larger pieces to fit the artistic style required in levels. I ported multiple DD1 levels into the updated engine doing complete collision, optimizing and pathing passes. I also did these same passes on all of the newly created levels along with bug fixing throughout. Plus the creation and completion of a level for DLC along with other unfinished pieces.
