I worked on early level design and eventually transitioning to QA testing. Since our game was based on metrics, I learned how to do unit based designed with Unity's Probuilder and also snapping different objects together. I transitioned to the main QA Tester later on and documented bugs I found periodically as well as specific playtest requests for different mechanics.

 

A couple of things I learned during this project were incredibly crucial to my development as an aspiring Game Designer. One was communication. I already knew communication was incredibly important. But it is even more important when on a larger team. No matter how small a change is, always communicate it. The second thing I learned revolved around Level Design and Play testing. Design the levels are the mechanics being showcased. Not doing this will cause problems. If one just designs a level to look cool, then bugs and progression blockers will most likely arise. When playtesting, always playtest in the mind of the player. Just because you can beat a certain part doesn't mean a new player can. This came in handy in future iterations of level design.
