About the project

An unannounced medieval merchant life-sim in Unreal Engine 5.7. The player rises from a lodger with a fish stall to a merchant owning houses, shops and a mansion, in a walled trading town seen mostly from above, with the option to walk its streets. Grounded and historical, in the spirit of Kingdom Come: Deliverance.

The work

The whole town and the land around it are already laid out in my own planning tool (a web-based map editor): streets, about 340 houses and workplaces, the wall and gates, castle, market square, quay, fields and farms. The game builds its level from this plan. I'm looking for a level designer to work in a copy of the tool and make the layout look professional and believable:

Streets, lanes, rows of houses and squares that read well from above

How the districts fit together and flow

Gardens, yards and open ground, so nothing looks empty or awkward

You may move anything; nothing is deleted

We start with ONE district as a paid test. If we're both happy, the whole t

**Qualifications**

A portfolio showing town or city layouts / level blockouts seen from above (not only finished renders)

An eye for how real medieval towns were laid out (plots, rows, squares, market streets)

Experience with city-builders or top-down games is a strong plus (Manor Lords, KCD, etc.)

Clear communication and the ability to work to a short brief

No Unreal knowledge needed for the layout itself - the work is done in the planning tool

**How to Apply**

DM @DrPenguin with your portfolio (top-down layouts please), your quote and time for a one-district test, and your availability. A written agreement is signed before work begins.
