Hey!
Here’s a fresh batch of screenshots from Becrowned, my non-linear survival horror game filled with atmosphere, industrial horror and dark fantasy.

If you love the genre, don’t forget to wishlist it ♥️

“Is he dead yet?” asked Piglet.
“No,” said Pooh.
“Fuck,” said Piglet.

Continuing retrospective of my Gotham Knights #leveldesign!

The abandoned ruins of Arkham Asylum.
Shrouded in dark horror, the Bat family would uncover the League of Shadows grisly ritual of creating a Man-Bat army in a secret lab inspired by the 1990 film Darkman. 🧵

In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Kamek turns invisible whenever he teleports. By removing the invisibility, we can see that he is actually compressed to a thin line and stored in this spaghettified form in the game's memory until he reappears in a different spot.

2nd progression beat of the path leading to the Lazarus Pit.

I created the intact version of the #Batman Batcave to later extrapolate from it as a destroyed version. After navigating through the wreckage, players find the ancient entrance to the Lazarus Pit. #gamedev

League of Shadows tunnels leading to the Lazarus Pit.

As the final mission, I increased navigation difficulty by creating a grapple gun challenge with a death penalty. The grapple points planted by League ninjas were rigged with bombs to thwart interlopers.

Since Bluesky got recently so active, I wanted to share again, that earlier this year I made a huge free guide about 2D projections in videogames. I called it "Isometric games don't exist!" and you can download all 40 charts on itch
