Embedded Files
The player takes control of an agent that sneaks around two office towers to plant a virus and then escape.
This project was inspired by 007 Nightfire and I went about emulating game design choices and visual aesthetics of the early 2000s, such as keeping a spy theme, no ironsights, and making sure all the props matched the early 2000s look. The meat of the game design was to make sure to keep a tense experience between the player and the obstacles, guards and the player are able to quickly end eachother for example.
I referenced real office floorplans to construct the level while still maintaining multiple ways to reach and achieve the objective and navigate the space, especially in the first tower.

As a fun little feature, the player is wearing all of the inventory items, and all relevant information about each gadget is visible on the gadget its self.

I wanted the player to not be defensless if caught, but still make combat risky, so I made it so player and enemies have low time to kill.
