Escape from Brackenburg

[Tetrafish]

Finished! I would definitely consider this a keeper (along with The Great Work). 5 Stars, or 8.5 out of 10.


If you asked for constructive criticism... In or near the beginning you start with your back to a dead end. Maybe if there were some type of door - to make the player think this is where you came from.... But I suppose the character could've ended up there from wherever they came from.

At first the story seems a bit generic (not necessarily bad - it has some good writing), but it gets pretty solid towards the end - especially in the 'shrine'.

There were a lot of boxes in this. Also a good share of closets... The closets - that's okay. I think I read in another post here someone saying something about lag...? Might've been due to too many boxes... I don't know. But with so many boxes the player might think "I'll put these all over the hall - just in case a monster starts to chase me!" A lot of objects did come in handy at one point in helping me get away from a Grunt. I'm not complaining about the boxes - my system can handle 'em, and they do give a certain feeling of insurance against monster chasing. Maybe you won't want the players to feel that comfortable...? Or you can keep them for the aesthetics.

------------------

Some more textures missing: The stairs to the East Hall door, the bannisters at the top of the stairs -you can see through them looking at them straight on.

In storage, in the large room near the lever... There are 2 walls on the sides (there are some pallets stacked vertically between them) they don't go all the way to the ceiling (which might be how you want them), but they're invisible on the top - probably from being very thin.
