Level Design Master Class Series: All in One Complete Course

Why this course is special

This course not only covers the basics of what Level Design is. But it also goes further as we look at Key fundamentals, best practices, and what makes a good level designer that is industry-ready.

This course isn't going to be someone talking over power points for 8+ hours. People need to see theory in practice. This course will offer students access to level designers, building scenes and teaching at the same time, showcasing not only the theory but how it will be represented in both Unity and Unreal Engine. There are also many Documents, Assignments, and Quizzes throughout the course.

The Course Structure

The course is almost all videos with reference articles, books, and videos.

After you finish this course, I guarantee you will be a stronger level designer and be able to apply essential principles to your designs.

The course is structured into 12 Main Sections.

My Guarantee

For every student that joins the course, they will be able to ask questions about their games and how to go about using color to develop them. I will be available to answer all questions for all of my students.

When you complete 100% of the videos in this course, you will be emailed a certificate of completion by Udemy so you can show it as proof of your expertise and that you have completed a certain number of hours of instruction in the course topic.

Meet the instructors

Emilio Padulo

Economic Game Designer

Greetings

My name is Emilio Padulo and I am a Game Designer.

Ever since I was young I have always been interested in creating games; whether it was inventing RPG games with my sister, creating huge Lego worlds with story driven adventures or building excel spreadsheets for Diablo. From childhood my path has always been clear - I would work in the video game industry one way or another.

During my adult years I continued on this path and obtained two degrees; one in Marketing and another in Game and Level Design. In the course of my degrees I delved into many theory heavy topics about Game Design & Development such as; Freemium business model, gamification, analyzing KPI's for optimization, level design, color psychology - just to name a few. Since graduating I have been able to work in the field for some time exercising my knowledge and honing my skills by consulting with many indie gaming developers, specifically with those who are interested in learning how to optimize their mobile apps through the different monetization models.

There has been a lot of trial and error in my own personal approaches which are errors I want others to avoid hence why I've started creating these courses to help developers new to the industry to not make the same mistakes I, and many others have done.

I cannot wait to share all that I have learned with you so that you too can become a great game developer in no time. So start now, and take a look at some of the courses I offer. If you have any questions - feel free to reach out!
