[MOD] The Tomb of Gandar v0.7
Posted: Mon Oct 13, 2014 5:42 pm
Hi everyone,
I've been in the works of a LoG 1 dungeon for the past 2 years--yeah, that's a really long time (sadly it's not as long as you'd hope)--and I'm hoping I could get some feedback, since I only have one tester who has played the same stuff 4 times just to see anything new in order to give valid feedback with a party that actually went through the dungeon. The dungeon is not finished, but has 6 floors to it (one of them is an entrance only, I have plans for it in the outdoor enviornments of LoG 2), and at least a couple of hours could be expected in a playthrough.
If you do happen to give it a shot, please note that environments are heavily lore-driven, and any atmosphere disruptions would be great to get feedback on; and the lore in general is important to the map, so any bits that could be clearer in notes/scrolls would be great to know about. As for some personal thoughts on it, I feel like the map design is really great--at least compared to how it was in my first draft of a few levels--but the item and sometimes monster placement is not only lacking, but not always appropriate. This is why I would love feedback. LoG 1's editor is the most fun I've had in a level editor... ever, and to get some feedback from someone who doesn't know every nook and cranny like I do would be awesome.
If you manage to reach a few floors down--which you probably will but I have no idea how well I hold attention in this map--the map gets brutal and I'd like any feedback on difficulty tweaks. This is not supposed to be an easy map, as you will gather from the lore. Although I don't look for a perfect playthrough, using crystals often will save you a lot of replaying.
Anyway, that's the jist of this. Any feedback you have, you're free to leave it here or on the steam workshop page.
Thanks for reading and/or playing, I appreciate it.

I heard some people like non-steam downloads so this is what you'd want (currently 0.7): http://www.mediafire.com/download/apkrd ... Gandar.zip
