I found everything I needed before getting the crowbar. Wandering around knowing what needed doing but without having any way to interact with the world was very frustrating.
Yeah, it was one of our challenges, directing the player. We tried our best with text cues, audio cues and the little map, but as we can see, it works for some and other no. We didn't want to be too obvious either. And interactivity was something we aimed for at the conception phase, but as it went on, we didn't stay consistent with it. It's something that came up with testing as well. Having almost everything interactive/animated with a trigger such as the drawer, books, nightstand would have indeed made it move alive.
i have the crobar the lantern found the hole in the floor and got to the red chamber of death but then if i try opening the door i get back at the beginning
Ya, when you die there, it's supposed to be the end. I would have liked credits, but our level designer wanted otherwise...he kinda wanted it to be a loop like in a short story or something.
Is there a reason why you guys uploaded the mod including all your .svn files? You essentially doubled the download size that way 0_o. Unless you plan to have people update it on the fly, I would suggest you use the svn-export option next time :-D
I honestly didn't know about that hah =P. I'll keep that in mind next time ;).
Wow.... just wow! I am amazed. Really, I have been playing penumbra which has been scaring the hell out of me, but out of that little map I got even more scared then any other game ive played. *SPOILERS* The part were you open the door and the face flashes at you scared me so much I screamed in vent... *SPOILERS*
Please, keep this mod up! I really would like to see more of this! I love these kind of games.
Just this demo scared the **** out of me. Awesome mod, keep working man.
