ROOT

Root is a 2D platformer where the main character, a plant in a boot, has to reach the end of every level making use of its grappling hook. The game has 3 levels, with increasing difficulty in the platforming, new hazards and platforming sections. 

Title: Root

Genre: Platformer

Year: 2023

Role: Level Designer

The general idea behind the design of these levels was to make them all fair but with a scaling amount of difficulty. Each stage starts off quite easy, letting the player get accustomed to the controls and the mechanics since the first stage, only introducing proper hazards from the second one and finally putting their knowledge of the game in the last one. The latter also presents some checkpoints, placed after particularly tough sections, so that if the player were to die they wouldn't have to restart the level from the beginning.
