Description
A third person platformer with 2D characters in a stylized 3D environment. The player is tasked with retrieving lost stars and returning them to their respective constellations. For each star returned, the player gets a small buff to their stats and more story will be revealed.

Design Goal
The goal for this game is for the player to be able to freely traverse through the map after the tutorial stage while finding new weapons and lost ship parts.
Design Process
Each section of this level was separately designed to teach the player new mechanics earned through finding new weapons aroudn the map. The different zones were then connected trhough smaller rooms that contained platforming challenges and enemies.
