In The Proposal, you play as an anxiety-ridden person who plans on proposing to their girlfriend. But with much anticipation for the big moment, it's hard to focus. To deal with your racing thoughts, you drink alcohol you find. While it makes it easier to see, it becomes harder to move around as your controls reverse, your vision warps, and you slowly drift.
For this project, I was the level designer, using assets I bought, I made a small pocket of an urban area, with buildings and a simple park. The apartment, bar, and the park are the three areas I had to handcraft for the game.
It was an interesting experience to create places like these. At first, I was creating what felt like a realistic home but when I playtested the area, it made me realize how unfun it was to move through. Because of this, I spent the majority of the time, tweaking the areas between realism and fun. I think games can have their level design more to fun or to realism but to me, it felt that because of the tone and gameplay of the game, it should be balanced.
