Challenges

This being our first project we were faced with several challenges that we needed to overcome but the main one for us level designer were puzzle design.

Fortunately both of us on the level design disciplin took our time to create analog prototypes of our puzzles to the best of our abilities. This allowed us to quickly test our puzzles and identify problems either in how they were presented or in how they were solved.
