Game Level Designer: Also known as Game Level Manager. Mainly responsible for the design of the game scene, the task flow, and the design of the level difficulty, its work covers all aspects, including the distribution of monsters in the scene, AI design, and traps in the game.

To put it simply, level mastermind is one of the main creators of the game world.

Game level designer, English job title: Level Designer, or known as level planning, as the name suggests, is actually the designer of the level in the game. The work of a game level designer is briefly described below:

Game level design, in fact, is the design of the entire game world, in a game, players have almost the time in the game world to travel Li Soutype, it is conceivable that the importance of guessing the game level is undoubted. A game needs the guidance of a level designer from the player's fledgling to the development of a "peerless master".

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

The earth is not yet shaped, it is chaotic, and darkness is above the abyss;

The Spirit of God is on the waters.

God says Let there be light;

And there was light, and it was the first day.

And God said, Let there be a firmament between the waters, and separate the waters from the waters;

God made the firmament the second day.

God said, "Let the waters of the world be gathered up in one place, and let the dry land be exposed;

And God called the dry land the earth, and the accumulation of waters the sea, the third day.

The Book of Genesis

The setting of the game world is like the Book of Genesis, with light and darkness; There is land, and there is sea; There is heaven and there is hell. The designers have created an alternate world parallel to the real world, which can be primitive, magical, or interstellar. But all of this comes from their God, the game designers, who created it all, and they are the creators of this world.

As the great master of the Creator, Lord God, before he created the "spirit of all things" human beings, he took the lead in creating the time and space that could allow living beings to grow, including the stars, the sky, the earth, the sea, etc. Therefore, the scene setting is the most important thing to highlight the characteristics of this virtual world.

Let's try to imagine the pathos of a hero in the wrong era: Zhuge Liang may have missed Liu Bei because of his self-examination diploma; Wei Xiaobao was shot early for bigamy, and Gan Luo was thirteen years old and wanted to buy PS2 ......Oh, it's terrible, will they still be heroes like this?!

The appearance of heroes is a stage that needs to be suitable!!

Isn't there such a sentence? "The times make heroes". "Times" and "heroes", which of the two is more important, everyone has already known in their hearts!
