ABOUT ME
Hello! My name is Luke Jacobsen. I am a video game level designer currently about to graduate from Abertay University with a BA (Hons) in Games Design & Production. I specialize in working with 3D projects primarily inside Unreal Engine 5. Currently I have worked on a professional brief for Hyper Luminal Games titled Stolen Timelines, which is a 2D platformer. And I have one fully complete solo linear FPS demo labelled Project Bolt. A playable demo on Itch.IO is currently available for Stolen Timelines. whereas a public playable version of Project Bolt is still underway.

Final level concept for Project Bolt. The level was designed using player agency to guide the player to complete their main objective: Collect the keys.
Here is Project Bolt once the key areas of interest were added. Through thoughtful asset placement, exploration is encouraged by allowing keys to be seen by the player but not collected until they have found the missing piece of the puzzle.
These are the final two traps. Within Stolen Timelines, there were a total of 5 traps designed and 2 maps conceptualized by me.
