Batman: Arkham Underworld is a (now defunct) iOS Tactical Competitive Builder developed by Turbine, Inc. Set in the Arkhamverse, you take on the role of a Crime Lord in Gotham City, recruiting super-villains, hiring thugs, and working to expand your criminal empire.
My role on the project was Content Designer, creating PvE mission content. This includes standard PvE "Popcorn" missions as well as story content featuring Batman characters. I did level design, set-dressing and creative writing for over 100 missions, including dialogue performed by industry voice actors for the characters Bane, Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Professor Milo and Amanda Waller.
Below are some examples of my work for the project:
I wrote the dialogue for the character Bane, and also wrote, designed, and built his unlock story arc. This is a behind-the-scenes with JB Blanc (the voice of Bane), and the final cutscene.
This is his final unlock mission. Bane’s story missions also included a new level mechanic which I designed and implemented through the script system.
I wrote and designed the first four Suicide Squad arc missions, including the VO dialogue. Please keep in mind some story moments happen between missions, and aren't included in these videos.
Perfect Patsies: A missions demonstrating a little story moment told only through mission strings and pre-existing logic.
"The Geologist", A Mid-Level mission with a less than obvious best route. This is a good example of storytelling via set-dressing.
"Gordon's Knot", a High Level puzzle mission showing "Level Design As Art"
"Private Gallery", a difficult High Level puzzle mission, where players have to be very precise with their movements.
Fun With Explosives. A level that's just for fun.
