RESPONSIBILITIES / MY CONTRIBUTION

  • I applied most of the hurt- and hitboxes to the attacks and moves of both of our characters.
  • I oversaw the hurt- and hitbox process done by peers and provided feedback to their work in order to establish consistency.
  • I worked closely together with the animators in order to secure quality, clarity and accuracy for each of the moves
  • I was responsible for balancing our characters’ damage, movement and other data together with a peer.
  • Working together with the environmental artists in order to establish clarity in the available levels.
  • During early development I was responsible for level design and creating level elements and hazards

Early development


Kra-ken started out as a platform fighter. During this time in development I was responsible for the level design and creating level elements and hazards using Unreal Engine Blueprints. We decided to shift to the current version of the game because we found that the original concept wasn’t fun enough.
