Mafia III Game Covers

It's 1968 and the rules have changed.

After years of combat in Vietnam, Lincoln Clay knows this truth: family isn’t who you’re born with, it’s who you die for. Now back home in New Bordeaux, Lincoln is set on escaping a criminal past. But when his surrogate family, the black mob, is betrayed and wiped out by the Italian Mafia, Lincoln builds a new family on the ashes of the old and blazes a path of military-grade revenge through those responsible. Intense gun fights, visceral hand-to-hand combat, white knuckle driving and street smarts will all be needed. But with the right crew, tough decisions and some dirty hands, it’s possible to make it to the top of the city's underworld.

Contributions

General

I joined the team shortly before the founding of Hangar 13 Games. After some inital mission explorations, I conducted game editor competitive research and redesign proposals, including viewport camera and object manipulation. I then rolled onto working on hideouts and district foundation work; I designed the supermarket and nightclub hideouts, and assisted with scripting on others. I then moved onto missions, pitching Pray on the Way Up and performing first-pass blockout. Then I worked on The Poor Sumbitch, which I also pitched, and did an iteration on Brave New World. I then spent some time on the latter half of Burn Like Napalm before moving onto A Real Nice Time, which was shown at E3 2016. I also put together I Deserved Better. Last, I assisted the art team with optimizations across all the missions and hideouts.
For DLC, I got to design Worse Than Dying from start to finish.
