BioShock 2: Level Designer (Art Of The Game Part 5 of 5) S03E05

In the final episode of the five-part Art of the Game series about the making of BioShock 2, 2K Marin level designer Steve Gaynor walks us through the opening level of the game and talks about how the tight relationship between the art and design teams played a key role in the games look and feel. See how previously submerged spaces like the Adonis Luxury Resort create a new look to Rapture, as alien-looking sea life adorns the level. In addition, learn about how playing as a Big Daddy offers new abilities like fighting underwater and using the new environments as your weapon.

@ustoledmysammich well. in the editor its alot of modes. Wireframe, lightmode, Normal texture and so on. its fun to make maps ! :)

[ustoledmysammich]

Those wireframes hurt my eyes, building those from scratch feels like it'd be a living hell, I don't know how he does it and enjoys it...

@cherrypoppinpoptart What?

[nxt2345]

im 14 years old and i love video games. I created a game by using C# and it was text based. i know alot about video game graphics that when i talk to my friends about video games I have to explain to them every detail i know. C# is great for making games for PC, xbox, and zune.

@drawingdude4711 I am in the games industry and I'm a year older than you. I have been studying level design since I was 7 so I have a few tips. Get used to dead lines my dead line is usually an hour for basic design then another hour for brush-up. Get used to a range of different tools from UDK to a 2D mario level editor. You'll start off small in a indie team then work your way up you don't jump into games like this. If you want some experience you can always work with me to create a game.

[jamesfelix303]

One of the best games ever created :-)

[SuperDrunkMoose]

I learnt most of this at home!
