Challenges

The games I had modded so far all possessed intrinsically fun features, such as shooting enemies, slowing down the time, etc. Would I be able to create a fun experience if I were to remove these features and keep only the barebones player input? This project was such an experiment.

In the process, I got closer to the roots of level design, and had to develop aspects of my level that I used to consider secondary. It taught me a lot about designing puzzles, deepening the atmosphere thanks to visual effects and ambient sounds, guiding the player, and harmoniously combining all that.
For more information, please refer to the Post Mortem. This project won the Editor's Choice Original Art award at ModDB.com in 2010.

Exact role

I imagined and developed the whole project, and am the author of all the new content, except for some custom vegetation and object packages, such as pine trees, an old barn and european plants. See the included manual for the complete list of external resources.
