After the racing #leveldesign, I started to become interested in non-linear level design. Here are some resources I found very interesting about this subject.

I wanted to become more familiar with race #leveldesign so I tried to create a level on Trackmania
You can playtest it if you want to, I'm always looking for feedback 😁

Better late than never.
Recently took part in Steve Lee’s Level Design Jam and I chose to make a new level for Slipgate Crisis based on the theme of Escape.

I live the same thing for level design.
Three weeks ago, I told my friends I'm making a Trackmania level... At least my documentation is ready 😅

#ChloroLink will be a cosy game, for sure.
But you know what is *not* cosy? Working on a cosy game
I promise, I'll write all the lore needed @laywelin.bsky.social 😌
I'll panic while writing it, but it will be the chillest ever

No tool—AI or otherwise—can speed up game development if leaders don't rise to the occasion.

The last playtests show that my #blocktober level has guidance issues. To fix it, I used the enemies' movements, lights, and framing. I'm looking forward to seeing if it's enough.

Today, Iuliu-Cosmin Oniscu, published an article about how to be a better level designer. While it's a bit sad, it's good to remember that #leveldesign is not only about blockout, especially during the #blocktober month.
