Features
Threats and puzzles
The idea of the project was to connect traditional 3D platformer game with The Floor Is Lava game. Lava was designed as the main threat that will set the pace of the game. Lava level is supposed to rise over time and force player to climb to the higher locations. During the game player can also find other obstacles, like slowing glue traps , spikes and floating platforms.
Another, important part of the game were puzzles. Player finds on its path many obstacles that are required to be solved to access another locations. The purpose of the puzzles were to slow down the player and add to make it explore the level further.
Player Movement
To make the gameplay interesting player can perform variety of actions. Most of the functionality is related to movement like grappling hook and swinging, climbing. Additionally player is able to interact with objects located in the level like jump pads, battery and battery pads and greppable objects. Both threats and puzzles are key elements of the gameplay that were used to create dynamics and aesthetics of the game.
Big Environment
The world was built so player can feel like a toy in child’s bedroom. Large furniture , nooks and crannies and other toys let player to submerge in the children’s world. Big size and additional spaces allowed not only to create platformer challenge but also gave possibilities to create narrative environment and puzzles as a additional part of the gameplay.
