About The Job
We’re looking for an experienced map/level builder to create new maps for Mega Heist, a round-based Cops vs Robbers game (currently in alpha). I highly recommend playing a few rounds to understand the gameplay flow: 👑 Mega Heist | Play on Roblox
The game already features two maps (Mall and Museum, both built by me), but I’m looking to outsource map creation as I focus on other parts of development.
Map Design Requirements:
- Fully original maps (interior only)
- Supports ~10 players (similar scale to existing maps)
- Optimized (max ~3000 parts, no z-fighting)
- Semi-realistic style (match existing maps)
- Multiple escape routes (doors, vents, shortcuts, etc.)
- Supports ~100 item spawns (4x4x4 items, no modeling needed)
- 2–3 collection points, spread across the map
- Themed rooms (e.g. stores, halls, vaults, etc.)
- Optional unique map mechanics (e.g. shutter doors, cash registers, etc.)
- Multiple floors allowed, but clear navigation
- Layouts should encourage chases, strategy, and flow (16–20 walkspeed)
- Avoid overly large or empty layouts
- Avoid dead ends, players should almost always have a way out of any room
Workflow:
- Start with a basic blockout/layout
- Iterate quickly together
- Once approved → move to full detailing
You can choose to build (one of) the following maps:
- Bank
- Office
- Hotel
Requirements
- Experience: Minimum of 2+ years in map/level building. A portfolio or examples of past work is required.
- Communication: Must be able to communicate clearly in English and have Discord.
- Reliability: Active, responsive, and able to communicate progress consistently throughout the project.
- Deadline: Able to complete a full map within ~14 days.
- Bonus: Experience with 3D modeling / asset creation is a plus.
Payment
Payment is 10,000 Robux per map (negotiable). If I really like the map, I will give you a bonus with potential for a full-time position at Saikou.
