By far "Orcs Must Die!" was the most fun I've ever had working on a game. If you've never seen or played this game, I'd highly recommend checking it out! It can be purchased on
Steam or through
Microsoft XBLA on the 360. I can still remember the feelings of our first play-test was nothing but a non-stop adrenalin rush! Anyway I just wanted to get some artwork posted from the game. I started out creating basic level building assets and then slowly transitioned into level building and lighting. The level building stuff was really fun because we had total artistic freedom on what the levels would look like, we just had to be careful not to fill too much of the walls and ceilings with art that traps couldn't be placed on. Anyway you probably didn't come here to read, but to look at some cool imagery, here ya go!
Assets:
Decals are a wonderful thing, they work great with floor trap placement.
Oh yeah, the front door was supposed to have chains!
Rift base without particles
This actually got cut for design reason:
1st pass
2nd Pass - cleaned up the crystal and possible color variations
