We have another student #blockout from Ethan Topping who worked with the half life 2 hammer editor. Ethan had a focus on balancing combat with narrative techniques.

@babyjack.bsky.socialThis was for the first SNR Labs
When I was working on this with @axdxdos.bsky.social and @appleblossomvr.bsky.social We built the kit based on BlackMesa aesthetic and built up the space size and feel from those pieces.

@tailgateadventure.bsky.socialAnd don’t ask where does fire come from in the Stray Refuge, you’ll know soon enough!

@tailgateadventure.bsky.socialI know it’s just a blockout (trust me, I do). But I’ve been longing to work on this level. This is when Tailgate gets magical and cozy before it gets darker. This is Hyde’s Skywalker moment on Yavin 4. This the Rebel Base — the Stray Refuge.
@tailgateadventure.bsky.socialI love the smell of fresh blockout on Monday…

@ulsterunigamesdes.bsky.socialContinuing our student #blocktober we have this cyberpunk inspired level from Brian Doran.
@monsterclip.bsky.social#blocktober for Smugglers Den in Highguard. I wanted a tiered layout so there could be vertical destruction paths and a no-man's land for an explosive barrel minefield. And I knew I wanted a rocky stormy coastal base vibe. The artist (Paul Tran) turned it into a pirate-y themed base which I loved.
@gammagames.bsky.socialsome more #blocktober after lunch #gamedev #weirdtober
@kelvinvanhoorn.comNew week, new level for #blocktober, a small village this time

@gammagames.bsky.socialhappy to report that the scale is pretty much what I wanted #blocktober #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

@michaelbarclay.bsky.socialHad to reach into the vault for this #blocktober post. My OpenGL coursework from uni. Wrote my own heightmap editor. Eventually added texturing based on height and a first person camera with ground collision so you could walk around. It nearly killed me.
@gammagames.bsky.socialfor #blocktober I'm building a train 🚂 in trenchbroom
