Nightmare in 7B

Duration: 6 Months

Engine: Source

Role: Level Designer

Delivery Date: March 2007

Nightmare in 7B places the player in a horror themed level where they play as Bernard, a man looking for his wife Eslie. The player must search through the zombie-filled apartment building and then escape with Eslie to the roof.

The gameplay of Nightmare in 7B plays the same as Half-Life 2, namely the gameplay in the “We Don’t go to Ravenholm” level. For the first half of the level, the player fights their way through the zombie-filled apartment building in order to find their wife, Eslie. After finding Eslie, the level takes on a different feel. Before, the goals were to search and survive; now the goal becomes to protect. The player must protect Eslie at all costs and figure out a way to escape the zombie-infested city alive.
