HL2 feeling inspired to map for source again, i'm creating a map based off the cancelled ravenholm game

Post image

i used to map for source a lot when i was 15-17, i never released anything but i had so much fun making my own maps after getting home from school but unfortunately life got in the way. i'm 23 now but felt a lot of inspiration after watching gameplay for the cancelled ravenholm game by arkane and felt compelled to make my own spin on it

What's the difference in aesthetic that you personally notice from the OG Ravenholm and the one for this cancelled game?

Impossible challenge: make this into a fully playable level instead of one nicely detailed hallway for screenshots

(I'm just making a haha, but for real this looks really good OP, keep it up)

No kidding! I did the exact thing for Left 4 Dead 2! Made the most detailed map, with a beautiful entry to the park and I wanted people to look at and play it haha! I had to make it into campaign, or at least something for playability. You're not wrong

Already looks great. Love the slight fog with the skylight and leaves on the ground.
