A downloadable Prototype for Windows

The 16th century "The New Game of Life" reimagined as a demo level in Unreal Engine with a walkable area and some prototype game mechanics. The New Game of Life originated as an unofficial board game from France played in the 16th century. This game inevitably inspired a modern take; Published in 1790 London as domestic children educational entertainment as Human Life. 

The setting is a foggy, dreary Old England level where you enter the pub and have to find four keys to unlock the upper floor and the second half of the level on the other side of the pub. The target audience for this would be more causal, hidden-object minded players. It was a big challenge taking on both interior and exterior design. While my assets aren't complex, I traded it off with exploring realistic textures and materials to capture the emersion of being in an Old England setting. I learned a lot of about scale and aspects that go into pulling everything together.
