Environmental Planning and Terrain Milestone

Planning an environment before building it allows you to approach world creation with clarity, intention, and spatial logic. Blocking out with basic sculpting tools and primitive meshes supports early experimentation with scale, composition, and player navigation without the distraction of final detail. This iterative approach encourages critical thinking about layout, pacing, and environmental storytelling, helping you to identify design challenges before committing to complex assets or systems.
