Gm_Wood_Side_Apartments: More Survival Horror Than You Can Shake A Lead Pipe At

[Reason134]

We added candles:

You can use your lighter to light candles scattered around the map. Since the lighter itself is kind of a poor light source, using candles is your best bet to light up a room. Remember, the flashlight is disabled!

No one else post please, I'm going to make this a one-sided thread where I talk to myself (im serious all of you shut up)

Inventory is basically done, we have 95% of the puzzles done, the map is playable from start to finish without needing to give yourself items, life is beautiful.

That looks wicked.

Can you do a room covered in newspaper? You should. At least the walls, enough where you can't see the wallpaper.

You should like replace those couches and chairs and stuff because they have that smelly "HL2" feel to them.

I will help I am good at making 12 polygon chairs.

2 block chairs? :v:

[nubblecakes]

[QUOTE=A big fat ass;30966596]12 polygon chairs.[/QUOTE]

That would be quite the achievement

[Blah360]

In my opinion, you [I]really [/I]need to add dust motes to those windows. Would create a lot of atmosphere to it rather than the feeling of just a static map.

Otherwise, this looks fantastic.

[QUOTE=oskutin;31045034]2 block chairs? :v:[/QUOTE]

One block actually, seen as each polygon could be a triangle.

[FilipinoGoblin]

Wow nice, anyway to get the regular flashlight?

[Blah360]

This still being worked on? I want updates :frown:

[Reason134]

Yup, the project is basically done, i'm just busy trying to juggle schoolwork and this thing. We only need to work on code shit and then you will be playing it.

Its looking very cool so far. I'll put aside my fear of horror for THIS map, definetly. Can't wait to see what the catacombs and ending shots are about. A map with a good story is absolute golden hens teeth.

... Multiple endings? :rolleyes:

I must say OP, I will be a tad disappointed if there's no puzzle involving a six pack of gone off sodas and a garbage chute jammed with a black plastic bag wrapped in tape.

FUCK
Thanks for delaying the map another month. We were going to release sometime this week.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

[Reason134]

Ha ha. Just kidding. Map's out.

Have fun y'all.

[Mr. Chop]

I am stuck and need a hint....
Very good map btw, playing in the dark with nice earphones.
[sp]What am I supposed to do with the pliers? I have everything unlocked I think but anything on the third floor. I didn't do anything with the typewriter.[/sp]

Very much this.

[bull04]

[sp]I got the pliers and fixed the lamp like 45 minutes ago. What do I do now?[/sp]

[sp]Use the pliers on the trunk's lock in the meth lab[/sp]

It's really, really hard to make the level design consistent because we did at least 30 play tests and every single person either instantly understood what do to with one item or was completely lost at points, so feel free to ask for hints.

[QUOTE=bull04;31383771][sp]I got the pliers and fixed the lamp like 45 minutes ago. What do I do now?[/sp][/QUOTE]

Hint:
[sp]Have you been to the writer's room yet? It's got a nice typewriter.[/sp]

Solution:
[sp]Type the phrase you saw after solving the lamp puzzle into the typewriter on the second floor.[/sp]

[Mr. Chop]

Edit: [sp]I never got to a methlab. Is it on the third floor? I never got anything up there unlocked.[/sp]

[Reason134]

[QUOTE=Mr. Chop;31383793]Edit: [sp]I never got to a methlab. Is it on the third floor? I never got anything up there unlocked.[/sp][/QUOTE]

Ah.

[sp]Yup methlab is on the 3rd floor. Be sure to check your inventory for any keys you havent used yet.[/sp]

Actually now that I just did a play though, you should probably go check out the typewriter. That's the next place you need to head.

[bull04]

Got it. thanks man.

EDIT:
Stuck again.
[sp]Don't exactly know how to get to room 304. Shit![/sp]
Very fun though. Gotta say its unnerving me.

[Sirdownloadsalot]

Finished it! It was pretty damn scary. Silent hill style ambience that kept me sunken into my chair.
Trippy ending as well, but i do have one complaint.

That typewriter puzzle was shit. There was no hint that it would ever be usefull. I think having a photograph of the area the answer is in (Without the Blue light) would help that alot.

Anyway, GREAT map. Absolutely astounding.

[Mr. Chop]

Just finished, great map! I wish more people would do little projects like these rather than full on mods that never seem to come out. I would have to agree with sirdownloadsalot on the typewriter puzzle, though, I was stuck at that part and had no idea what I could type on the typewriter to move forward.

[Reason134]

Yeah that one has been the problem child throughout development. Some testers got it instantly and others mailed me scary threats about how annoying it was.

Ah well lessons learned.

It was still terribly scarry, and it had some very creative scripting.

[bull04]

Finished! It was actually quite amazing. I loved the attention to detail as-well as gameplay. Very good ending too. Definitely recommend this to anyone willing to receive a chill!

[Reason134]

Uploaded a new version of the map. Works smoothly. Like a buttered up satin dress.

Wait what the fuck does that even mean? It's late i'm going to bed.
