Whether it's researching details of a historical site or creating a completely imaginary world, level design keeps me thinking about spaces and how to make them interesting all day long. I have a particular interest in telling stories with visual cues, and not relying on uninteresting text. I've been experimenting lately with open exploration in levels and how to motivate the player to explore on their own volition - to WANT to explore every nook and cranny of your hard work.
