Intro Level:
I designed this level to introduce the main two mechanics of the game, melee combat & phasing. I implemented three unique situations where the player would use these abilities, adding in enemies between these puzzles to keep players engaged.
Second Level:
Building off of the last level, I designed a puzzle where players would need to throw their club to remove the fires and progress through the level. I used a bright metallic red for the material to grab players' attention and kept them placed in visible areas for players who may not notice the material/color.
Third Level:
In the final level, I designed a puzzle utilizing the player's abilities where players who completed the puzzle would make it to the final boss without fighting any enemies while players who chose not to would have a risk of entering a room with enemies.
