Hi Astaraa, I am an aspiring level designer trying to get into the industry and open for any positions including unpaid positions to make my portfolio look better. I am also capable of 3D modeling and game design and I would like to ask if you are still looking for a level designer or not. Here is a link to my portfolio: [Portfolio\_GuanghaoH - Google Drive](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1SLdmZSC4C8Zx-T0I6m5olsq3w8KC0FJe?usp=drive_link) ---
