Do you ever still start with a piece of paper and a pencil when you're doing these?
Andreas JohanssonLead Level Designer, Persistent Universe
Yeah, I do sometimes. I'm not sure about these youngsters.
Manuel HeiderLevel Designer
Yeah, I actually do that as well. I try to think about how I want to build a place and some layouts, and I just do some rough sketches on paper. And then I try to convert them into the editor and see if that actually works. So how is it for you, Antoine?
Antoine FauvilleLevel Designer
I like to get my ideas done in a better way, in 3D, because I'm thinking about space. Sometimes I cannot convert it to paper. It's a bit of a weird one, but it depends. Sometimes I need a sketch before I know what I will be building, but it really depends on what the subject is, because the concept art can inspire you sometimes more than your own drawing.
