Cargo Ship

A 2v2 shooter game level created in Unreal Engine 5 Lyra Elimination mode.
Made for the module Introduction to Level Design as part of the game design programme at Uppsala University.

Level Design Concepts

1. Modularity - Using modular shipping containers to craft a container maze provides more freedom for experimentation and easier level iteration.

2. Hunt-and-ambush flow — players move through tight corridors between containers, encounter suddenly, and reposition.

3. High circulation flow with few dead ends.

4. Readability – even though it’s maze-like, players should orient easily via color and vertical cues.

5. Risk vs Reward

a. The only rifle pickup in the game will be available in a container attached to the crane which will be an exposed central area.

b. Other pickups are also placed at slightly exposed points with less cover.
