Documentation

The first month we took the time to transport the documentation made during the pre-production phase and moved to a Google Sites webpage.

This offered a cleaner and simpler way to approach the documentation for the entire team.

I took care of polishing the whole documentation so that all web pages would follow a similar style and adding simple tools to traverse each page easier.

I also managed the Synopsys, Level Design and Market Analysis web pages.

Level Design and Pacing

My roles for the level design started with the creation a set of rules on how to approach level creation, making sure that each level would follow them. 

The same can be said for the player on-boarding, where I decided to not include any written text to explain how each character and mechanic work, instead choosing to showcase them with only level design principles.

I also managed the overall pacing of the game, structuring the intoduction of new game mechanics and interactions to avoid overwhelming the player and making them more engaged with the game.

As for the design of levels, I structured the creation of most of them by:

• starting with multiple sketched pitches

• expanding an interesting concept on paper

• creating the level blockout using Unreal Engine 5's Cube Grid tool

• playtesting it multiple times on my own or with others

• polishing the position of the puzzle elements and finalizing the env

This was the process I used for the creation of 50+ levels, keeping half of them in the final product.

Trailer Editing

After having the game mechanics and most of the levels finalized, I started working on the game trailer and gameplay showcase.

My goal was to create an engaging trailer that would showcase Folding Fables' strong points, such as its presentation, mood and the game mechanics and interactions.

I then recorded the footage and edited the video with Camtasia Studio, making multiple adjustments following the team's feedbacks.
