Level Design Work

My First Big Level!

Made in Unreal Engine 5, I made it in the span of a few days as a sprint challenge for a level design class. I played with the particle system to make a simple rain, and smoke effect. Assets were used also to make this a real feeling hotel, and everything was hand placed (counter productive yes, but a good practice for detail also yes).
