Post news Report RSS City Decedere Level2 - Darkness - Released

This is the Second level of the City Decedere mod. As I only had 1 month to create this, its only half the intended size, but its still really scary - much scarier than the first...

Posted by on

I have some good news and some bad news - the bad news is that because of my uni deadline, I only managed to complete half the intended level of Darkness, in the one month. The rest of the level will be completed over summer. The good news is that it is much scarier than the first level


This level continues the story of the first level, which left off John and Amy trapped inside a bomb shelter, trying to find their way back to the city. As part of my university studies, I have included in the zip folder a link to an Online Questionnaire. The questionnaire will help me in my studies and also help me make the map better, so please fill it in as it is only short. The level is much scarier, having stuck more to psychological stimuli, researching from experiments and other games, as well as the helpful feedback from those that played the first level, which is why the questionnaire feedback is important to me, to make the game scarier, so please find 5 mins after playing the game to fill out the questionnaire :D

Features:

Map Screenshots:
like before, i dont want to give too much away about the content of the mod, so here are a few teaser screenshots with some hidden surprises.

after playing for a while, i dare to say two things:

1) godawful graphics... get some decent artists, they arent that rare, especially that cryengine 2 is the best engine gfx-wise at the moment and they can truly shine on it.
2) I WAS PERMANENTLY SCARED SHITLESS, and that happens very rarely, believe me

how it is that games with great gfx lack good atmosphere, and vice versa? ><

I think you said more than 2 things :P

I will comment on the Artist thing, as far as I know, it's a learning experience for the Author, and while it's not rare to find a decent artist, it IS rare to find a reliable one, when it comes to modding, it's probably best just to go at it alone unless there is some sort of necessity to have more than one person working on the project.

I'll download this and check it out shortly.
