Island01 Golden Path Region Story Team

The golden path story (aka: main quest) was broken down by map region and given to multidisciplinary teams. I was the missions designer on the team for Island01. Our task was to make a series of missions that would comprise the region story while also connecting smoothly with the procedural elements of the Nemesis System, a central pillar of the game that created randomized special characters that changed in response to player interactions.

  • As part of this team I worked with a writer and narrative designer to devise the region’s unique story, characters and region boss fight. Our team regularly reported to leads to make sure that our plans and prototypes were in line with the project’s overall vision. 

  • Designed and developed several working prototypes of a unique ‘region mechanic’, themed to the region story. This helped make the area feel unique.

  • Defined process and collaborated across disciplines and departments, including combat design, UI, art, and presentations/cinematics to develop prototypes.

  • Located several places where we could add foreshadowing to the main story’s major plot twists. Collaborated with the narrative team to create these new moments, and reworked the region’s boss fight design to highlight these moments. This solidified the connection between the individual region story and the larger game story, making both of them more satisfying.
