Heavenly Sin (2021)

Heavenly Sin is a Murder Mystery/3D Platformer Unity game set in the 1920s that I worked on with a group called Lotta Damage Studios, which consisted of 11 of my peers. I worked as the Creative Lead, the Lead Level Designer, and a Musician/Sound Engineer in this project. As the Creative Lead, I worked with each of our leaders of different disciplines, Lead Writer, Lead Artist, Lead Musician, and Lead Programmer, to manage the scope of our game to meet deadlines. As Lead Level Designer, I oversaw and participated in the design of each of the Mindscape levels and the layouts of the overworld and detective office. I also playtested each of the levels many times to iron out bugs and refine the player's movement and shooting. As a Musician/Sound Engineer, I worked with our Lead Musician, Hunter Best, on gathering songs from the 1920s to rework and integrate into our game, then gave feedback on the transcribed midi arrangements. After that, I took the midi sound files that Hunter had made in Musescore and did sound editing, mixing, and mastering in Reaper to finish them. I also recorded our four voice actors, Andrew, Paul, Hunter, and I (as Sal and the Enemy sounds), and mixed all of those voice lines. Our game was only completed up until the second Mindscape level, as we are planning on releasing each part of the game in sections.
