AARON BOEHM
LEVEL DESIGNER
My name is Aaron, and I was previously employed as a Level Designer at Twisted Pixel Games on Marvel's Deadpool VR. I started at Twisted Pixel in QA while I was still studying Game Design at Austin Community College, but was quickly transitioned into a Social Media Coordinator role before being moved to a full-time design position after graduating. For the past several years, I've also been a freelance games critic at Bloody Disgusting, reviewing some of the biggest games for the site. I have an Associate's Degree in Game Development - Game Design Specialization, and a Bachelor's Degree in Communication with an emphasis in Radio, TV, Film.
Marvel's Deadpool VR is a Game Award nominated title for the Meta Quest 3/3S, the first game starring the wildly popular character since 2013. For this title, I did level design for Secret Level challenge areas, encounter design for the majority of our narrative levels, and VO/animation implementation throughout.
For several years I've done freelance writing for the video game section of Bloody Disgusting, doing everything from reviews, retrospectives, interviews, and deep dives into particular moments or mechanics of a game. In addition to talking about video games, I also pushed to add tabletop roleplaying games and board games to our coverage, highlighting everything from big new board games to smaller indie RPGs.
In addition to running tabletop RPG campaigns (currently Public Access and Deathmatch Island; previously Brindlewood Bay, Heart: The City Beneath, The Sprawl, and Eat the Reich), I've also written several holiday themed
one-shots that I've run for groups of friends and coworkers.
When I was studying at Austin Community College, I took a lead role on several projects, coordinating with students of all disciplines to work on a vertical slice of Nanogear, an arena-based vehicular combat game that acted as our capstone project. I also did level and narrative design for a short prototype called Bluebeard's Bride, an adaptation of the folktale in a haunted house.
