In this devlog, with intel coming straight from the top brass, our Lead Level Designer, we’ll break down our Level Design method for Medic: Pacific War.
Medic: Pacific War is built with the vision of immersing players as Medics in the historical battlegrounds of World War 2’s Pacific Theatre. Every level highlights the unique challenges Medics faced on the front lines, ensuring every situation presents a high-stakes test of skill and decision-making.
To capture the chaos and intensity of war without overwhelming “Medics”, levels are carefully designed around specific parameters and objectives. The active battlefield serves as an immersive backdrop, helping players feel the weight of their role as Medics without removing the fun and engaging element of gameplay.
Carefully placed moments of intensity and brief respites create patterns that imitate the realities of war - scaling chaos with decision-making and moments of calm before the next set of actions begin.
This approach makes every mission feel like they’re more than just blips of battles - it’s a continuous test of survival, adaptation, and tactical planning, where players are thrown head-first into the struggles and triumphs of wartime Medics.
As expected, designing levels for a medic-focused, war-themed game is by no means an easy feat - one that goes beyond traditional shooter mechanics.
This meant designing environments that accommodate mechanics rarely seen in other games, such as dragging a wounded soldier to safety while under fire.
Much like other games, environmental hazards add the much-needed depth, especially with players not having the ability to counter danger sources. Minefields, for example, are obvious threats - but when carrying the injured, they become tactical obstacles. Other variations, such as trenches, foxholes, and fortified positions, provide temporary protection, but adaptability is critical.
Battlefields must feel intense yet strategic, demanding quick thinking and survival instincts. Medic: Pacific War captures the high-stakes pressure medics faced, offering a fresh take on war through level design that challenges players to save lives (rather than counterattack) in the heat of combat.
Designing dynamic events that impact a player’s experience, like air raids, enemy waves & line-of-fire, grenade paths, and others, requires careful planning. Levels must account for changes before, during, and after the event, ensuring seamless transitions while maintaining immersion. Reconciling multiple elements - like cover, destruction, and objective shifting - adds further complexity to the overall experience.
Approach options vary based on mission structure and narrative needs. Some levels allow multiple paths to reach the wounded, giving players the freedom to navigate dangers, while others funnel players into choke points, increasing tension and forcing immediate and strategic decision-making.
Both approaches serve different gameplay moments, reinforcing our goal to provide an immersive Medic: Pacific War experience in an otherwise familiar gaming wartime setting.
We’re shaping up Medic: Pacific War to be an intense and immersive experience, bringing the unique challenges of battlefield medics to life with intricate approaches to level design, historical accuracy, and mechanics that demand tactical, non-combative decisions under pressure.
But this is just the beginning - there’s still more to uncover about how we craft the environments that define a medic’s role on the battlefield. In the next devlog, we’ll dive even deeper into Level Design - breaking down designing for systems, iteration & testing, immersion & atmosphere, and optimization - delving into how gameplay mechanics tie into level design, how environments evolve through testing, how atmosphere influence player experience and how we refine performance for the best possible gameplay.
