Want to force players in a direction without being obvious?

Hitman uses clutter, mess, and sight-lines

I will always prefer to take the "easier" routes

What tricks do you use in your levels to quietly guide players?

Started a new environment piece over the weekend. Only clean meshes besides the lava texture so far. May be part of something bigger. Hoping to wrap it this weekend if weather allows.

How Hitman Paris makes the kitchen feel alive... with only THREE NPCs

1 is stationary, 2 patrol around doing different tasks

It's so simple and genius when you see how it works

🌟 Spotlight: @myteinteractive.bsky.social

It's always fun to compare a level with how it used to look in the block out phase. 😂

Testing new Tech Art features in #UE5

Experimented with physics interactions and dynamic sound logic to enhance the realism. Still a WIP, but I tried to capture the eerie vibe of a Korean underground passage

Hope you enjoy!

The breakroom does something interesting

There is a NPC that could catch you off guard, but he's half distracted

So players will have a split second to get away before needing to take action

Hammer 2 -> Unity Level Design Pipeline:

Hammer's our primary level editor, and we wanted a way to be able to author QPs & Rails directly in hammer.

Gist is:
- Tag meshes
- Preserve original topology on import
- Edge loop selection -> splines
