The Level pipeline template on a Venom Board canvas

What's inside

  • Paper map with the critical path, secrets and pacing beats
  • Blockout, then a playtest of the blockout
  • Art pass, lighting and optimisation (draw calls, LODs, culling)
  • Final polish, every step with an estimate

How to use it

  1. Open it. It lands on a new board of its own, in the web app or the desktop app (Templates, top right).
  2. Make it yours. Rename cards, set estimates and dates, and connect work that waits on other work.
  3. Plan it together. Share the board with your team to edit it live, or keep it on your computer.
