Inspiration, Butter and Level Design


Context: Our level design contest (rules are here) will be over in about three days (a timer is here).

Something catched my attention when I last went shopping: butter. The packaging and name inspired me to design a level.

  1. ROOMBOTER (“butter” in Dutch) sounds like the kick-kraftwerk word ROBOTER (“robot” in Germany). Robots are important in our game Nikki and the Robots..

  2. The packaging design aesthetics remind of pixels and tetris; blocks in a grid. Many of the existing levels in Nikki and the Robots are similar.

You can download this level [mirror 1|mirror 2].

Copying existing designs is not how I would usually create levels. The instant inspiration I got compelled me to do it in this case though.

When did you last have spontaneous inspiration for game locations/levels lately? Do you rather get ideas from nature or man-made things?

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist

Let me introduce you to the new Mech line: Gendai Spec. Those are Mech that specializes in surprise attacks, covered operations, and stealth. They are equipped with melee weapons but one of Gendai's frames supports sniper rifles.

A few screenshots of the places you'll cross in the Demo of Blu. You can play it today on #gamejolt !

A calm and quiet day.. Made surreal by the feeling of finding an elven building in the mountains, and wondering of its purpose and story. I built this elven style house and it was my first attempt at something like this, but what do you think?

I remade my main character, what do you think? :)
