I will let you know after I finish the exterior of the asylum. It's fiddly work, And I want to be finished with the exterior before any HD pics are taken.

alright

Complaint about pic quality is petty. Amazing build!

Well thank you very much!

I am taking inspiration on the exterior from both the Shalebridge Cradle, And Moira Asylum. Both are from the Thief series.

Spoiler for Hidden Content:

Both are also considered by many to be up there with the scariest levels in video games. So if I can even partially emulate that scary feel, I may be able to spook some 10 year old pretty badly with this place.

In addition, I do not think anyone on TM has made an asylum, At least not in a long while.


I'm glad you like the build though.
It'll be quite a while before this world is built up to the point where I would be happy hosting it, But if anyone wants to look around at what I've got so far, Feel free to message me.

Update on the asylum.

Spoiler for Hidden Content:

PWRBTTN said I should redo the fountain to be a little fancier, And have some nasty stagnated water in it.


A cemetery, And also a wall to make it less obvious that the asylum is at the edge of the world.


PWR's favourite angle.


Front view.



You are being watched....

Overall, I am loving this project. The monotony of the village was getting a bit much for me, And this has been a perfect way to break it up.

Looks awesome! I too am working on an asylum, since I have insanity scripts. A bit different from yours tho. Kinda repurposing a previous spot built by my wife. Making it an exciting new addition that may occur if 1 goes completely insane. You may just be commited! But it has a cool secret bonus hidden within it for those lucky enough to find the 'good' exit. BTW, I agree about those places being haunting. Especially Shalebridge, I'm talikng nightmares man... Nightmares.

These new pics are awesome. The graveyard especially.

In other news, I finally decided to make a sanity system. If anyone happens to have any ideas for effects of insanity, Be sure to tell me. There are tons in real life, So I want as many as possible for this world.


Last thing, How would you guys feel about a mechanic where your screen goes dark for ⅓-¼ of a second every 6 seconds or so to simulate blinking?

I'm definitely going to do this for the asylum, But I'm wondering if players would find it annoying to have this always happening. Perhaps I could have a configuration menu to allow players to turn blinking on and off depending on their preferences.

*Almost my favourite angle. I'm very picky about it.

As far as the blinking, you know I'm for it, but not every 6 seconds. I think I normally go about 30 seconds at least from blink to blink. Occasionally blink once or twice very rapidly after a blink.

I was going off of the average blink frequency of a normal human according to wikipedia.

Which states that test subjects blinked, On average, 10 times per minute. Of course I could change the frequency though.

I do think 30 seconds is a bit long. Lol
