PROVIDENCE RESEARCH FACILITY
Platform: PC
Engine: Unreal Engine 4
Team Size: 15 (Remote)
LEVEL OVERVIEW
Providence Research Facility is a large underground facility, positioned underneath the summit of Grotto Mountain. This location is meant to act as one of the many end-game zones, supplying players with high-tier loot.
The facility has three floors in total, each connected with elevators, and a total of three possible exits. Players have the option of leaving through The Drift elevator (the main entrance), the Rat's Nest Cave, or a ventilation pipe.
Using some Light & Switch BPs made by Shirk, I added some interactivity inside the bunker. Players can turn lights on or off in the utility section of the bunker, causing a blackout within the facility. I also utilized Shirk's Keycard BPs, to lock certain doors that needed specific keycards to open. The locked rooms are home to various locked containers that hold high-tier loot.
I was responsible for the layout of the facility, set-dressing, lighting, and container placement.
