SUMMARY:
The Cosmic Vale is a fantasy-inspired zone developed in Unreal Engine 5. It uses pre-rendered assets from the unreal engine marketplace. The primary goal of this project was to take the skills and techniques I learned as a Level Design intern with Blizzard in 2021 and apply them in my own work.

This project came to fruition during my lunch break while interning at Blizzard. I was browsing Pinterest and came across an image of these floating runes. This single image created a light bulb moment and lit the spark which ignited the beginning of what has now been a 3-year passion project.

Initially, this was only intended to be a stand-alone level design project. But I wouldn't be doing the project justice by having it as a pretty display piece. So, I found an Action RPG Template and am in the process of bringing the map to life! In this level, players can: Quest, farm materials, fight mobs, play with their friends via online servers, and even run a dungeon!
