More work on Shelter (it's not dead!). Interior art is finished except polish. Just added the first version of the 3d-skybox to help with the foundation for exterior art. More coming soon! #cs2 #counterstrike #leveldesign #source2

The #1 feature requested during playtests of Shelter was "Can the hostage be a dog?" Initially, I wasn't able to figure out a solution that worked. Well after a recent tip from another designer, I finally got it working. I present, the "Dogstage." #counter-strike #cs2 #source2 #leveldesign

Still blows my mind that with HL:Alyx, valve shipped ALL of the map source files for the entire game. Wonder how something works in the SP campaign? You can just go load it up, and check out the scripting raw. It's sick.

Around 10 months ago I began work on a CS2 project titled "Shelter." Its a Hostage rescue map set at an animal shelter. Here are some early shots from the level-design phase and some more recent ones from the in-progress art pass. (1/3) #counter-strike #cs2 #source2 #leveldesign

Here are some more photos of my CS2 project "Oldtown." It's looking like sundown. Team is starting to focus more on lighting as we approach major facade details being blocked in. Can't wait to share more photos of the lovely custom assets we are developing.

More work on my CS2 level. Instances make industrial architecture a lot quicker.

More progress today. Looking like I’ll compile tomorrow since I prepared the technical fiddle-bits.

Testing out some of the improved tools for CS2. Thank you to whoever added user-controllable parameters for beveling/thickening in Hammer, you're literally the best.

Finished Baldur's Gate 3 and accidentally got my wife hooked in the process. The house has been eerily quiet except for the low hum of the steamdeck...

Intro time! My name is Ross and I am a level designer and tinkerer. I currently work a cozy job writing law which pays the bills, but doesn't quite tickle my creative urges the same way level design does. I’m optimistically considering transitioning this hobby into a career in the future. (1/4)

Some other stuff for an unannounced HLA project I am working on. Gave a shot at implementing an unused mask design from Valve concept art:
