[WIP] Confusion - Ch1, 90 MB, a lot of custom files.

[HumiliatioN]

Okay. I finally finished and now my review:

Spoiler below!

Story was really great, very highly detailed mapping which is damn good and I enjoyed so much walking around and feel the atmosphere all around me.

Scares yeah many ambient sounds and terrified screaming voices this is really spooky and terrifying experience, my worst panic and scare moment was when the brute crushes that "Level door" damn! Good job dude!

Puzzles very interesting and well created, really brain-thinking ones, little easier on future maps maybe.

I wanna talk atmopshere more, you sir have created so many little details these first maps, really phenomenal mapping / awesome, I can't say any negative here, it's really good, flawless!

Design for everything is something really good in this story only played three maps and I was thrilled already and excited!

Overall:I have to give you 9/10 everything is almost perfect, not ruined at all, you spend really time with this one and I can see now the results. Brilliant so far! Can't wait full release!

Yay! I'm very happy you liked it. And as you said, I agree on making it easier; a lot get stuck, including my irl friends, which is not productive at all. Cheers!

You should put something up in the showcase sub forum to get more feedback : )

[lolmaster]

Is it just me, or is the plot pretty much always about "Unknown 'X'"?

The Showcase is for finished custom stories. This is not one of those.

Often. It's not actually as bad as you might think though. Since when using the unknown "X", you can fully utilize all the tools of the original, such as Flashbacks, old notes, etc, without it feeling just plain odd sometimes. Like, how else are you supposed to use Flashbacks, in order to develop the story, other than maybe unlocking ancient, forgotten memories...?
It's Amnesia after all. ^_^

I might've had tried something else, hadn't my tutorial I followed firstly been based on such an opening. I did remake most of my first area, due to lack of proper mapping, but didn't really feel the need to reset the story as well.

Well, that's my take on it. :=)

The work is stalled for now. I just can't find time to truly engage myself in building areas when I got tons of homework hammering me every second it gets.
Will continue working at the next break from school, hopefully! Thankz gaiz!

[Theforgot3n1]

Yay! Found some time to update this CS with v1.1, lots of bug-fixes and significantly improved hinting! Hope you guys won't need to check the walk-through anymore. ^_^

[Theforgot3n1]

Alright! Been working on it a bit through the break. I've not been able to produce a longer map, but rather a more refined one. Another sub-update, more to fix bugs and even more hinting, lol.

I wanna set myself into building some more... so hard tho.
