We Must Prepare
Level Design & Asset Creation
We Must Prepare is a Stardew Valley inspired post-apocalyptic robot farm simulator. The player is a robot tasked with gathering stone, mine, wood and metal, alongside growing plants and managing seeds to grow food to be able to save the human race.
Level Design
We Must Prepare has one single level that changes as the player gathers resources and works the grounds turning them into farming land. The level is conceptualized having three main areas: forest to the far left, lake to the far right and civilization at the center. The forest is dense with trees offering players a small navigational challenge and puzzle. The forest area is also rich with wood and mine resources to be gathered. The lake area offers a bit more breathing room for the player to navigate more freely, providing enough space for it to be turned into an alternate or extension of the farm area. In this area,the player can gather some items that can only be found in the lake’s water, alongside stone and mine. The civilization area located at the center portion of the level holds all buildings, silos, barn and house as well as the main area for the player to turn into farmland.
