I have finished testing the new Hedon update, to sum it up, it will introduce a non-slippery movement style, footstep sounds (based on terrain) and a series of decorative overhauls, primarily to th...

I took some time to work on Hedon's next patch, will be back on Haggard sketching next week.
Since it's been a fair point of criticism, I decided to implement an improved and less slippery movem...
This took an insane amount of effort to pull off, but it is probably the best map I've designed so far, with a lot of thought put into flow, puzzles, stealth, imsim interactions, story and looks (o...

I lied :^)

This has been more challenging than I expected, but then again, not easy to come up with four different ways of getting into a place and then balancing them out and inter-connect them. Expect a fai...

It took me a while to come up with an interesting overall design for Map06 - both in terms of aesthetics, objectives, and the actual level design that will bring everything together.
Coincide...

Starting off a new map sketch. I did hang onto my promise to make it smaller, although this time around there will be a lot of vertical work to do :^)

Aaand it's done. At least the Map03 part of it. I swear, I will try to make the next maps smaller, this is getting ridiculous.

Onward with the sketching! There's going to be quite a bit of verticality with this one.
I doubt anyone can tell what this place is since I'm trying to implement more abstract designs :^)
You might have noticed that I didn't post anything last week, and I figured it might be time to explain what's going on before I get right back on track.
This year has been kind of a mess and...

Damn this took ages to make. Here's Map01, though, although as you can probably tell from the file name, some of the areas will be common with Map07, which will be expanded further south.
