[Image: dtrh_header.jpg]

While we wait for Machine For Pigs, i bring my Amnesia mod: Down the rabbit hole.


It consists of a character that falls down a hole and makes friend with a spirit.
Together they face puzzles and dangers to escape from the hole.

For story lovers
Spoiler below!

Optionally this mod has a story i hope you may find interesting.

Through events, findings, notes and ghost messages the story unfolds with the game.

But, it is optional to follow/read the story cause you get quest notes to know and understand what are you doing.

If you liked the story, make sure to download the extras file for an extended ending video that uncovers a little more.



Developers
Spoiler below!

There's about 50 custom stuff i did that you may need for your mods
Feel free to use anything you see, just give me a little credit plz.

check /entities /billboards
There's pickable lamps, pickable tiny grunts, paintings, and other stuff.

Everything is ready to place on the editor, i used relative paths for that.

About code and such, if you find any interesting script ingame, you can check the script files, i added comments to explain what's coming on there. Also you may like the code structure i used or how i faced some codes.


Translations
Spoiler below!

If you want this mod on your/another language, please translate & send me the file extra_english.lang

i'll try to add it and give you credit.


Bugs/Corrections
Spoiler below!

If you find a bug, a texture/entity problem, misspell anywhere, please try to tell me.

Also i accept any suggestion/criticism from developers on my scripts.



Please let me know if i should make the sequel and what to include/improve

Have fun

I've started playing it now and it's pretty good. One thing I would advise on changing is the messages on the doors. There are some doors that say (for example) "You need the silver key to open this door". It's a bit specific. Also a there's a visual bug right in the beginning; There are pinetrees that go halfway through the corners of the room and it looks a bit weird.

RE: Down The Rabbit Hole +Trailer

Just finished it and i can say WOW!
This was one of the top 10 best story's i've played in a LONG time!!!
Very nicely done, scripting was also AMAZING!!!
Mapping was VERY good! Great job there!
Music was very bad in my opinion.. Juts sounded like a soundtrack of Keen Commander HEhEee..
Details were good / Very good..
Puzzles : Were really well done!
Some are a bit not difficult... but anoying..
MY OPINION HERE->to be REALLY hounest that key in that cellar where you need "someone the help" Will give problems for people... i didn't know what to do.. and suddenly i saw the key in that room? Be sure to let people know what is happening "Hint-> like make the player look at the key when it is there? "
Maybe a little bit more WUEST information? There are a LOT but maybe a bit more or carefully placed?
---
There were glitches here and there like Humiliation said before..
I've seen couple of paintings and some stuf that HAS to be on the wall,but are like 1 "block" off the wall , Looks weird...
Some light trough walls - Hint "If you do NOT use outside area's, ALWAYS take some black\dark skybox..
Then you won't be able to see those white spots\glitcherydoo's Wink
TOO bad there was no voiceacting SadSadSad
-----*****-----
Spoiler below!

"""BAD\Things that could be changed:"""
1.There are a couple of maps where you Spawn\Teleport to a new area\map.. Those parts are REALLY weird!!!
Just a black box and there you start from.. That was strange to me.
2.Pay GOOD attantion to FOXAREA'S... Some does look weird or misplaced..
3.There are very little or maybe 1 tree{s} if i remember good.. UNCHECK the collide.. ppl will fall of the map Wink
4.
I haven't seen a lot BillBoards? why? That's just that little toutch!
---
So far my opinion as far as i can remember from some minutes ago..

Lol, thank you for the review. I hate those trees.
Yes, some messages are too specific but people get stuck anyways.

I didn't want the player to run around the map trying to find where to use his items.

But maybe you are right, instead of 'silver key' it should say 'needs a key'.

thank you dnalange, lol.
very helpful.

sorry about that music, actually it comes from an old horror game.
Looks like it didn't work as i expected.

Now, about the key on the hole
I tried to make the player notice the key by himself without forcing the camera.

Also, in case the player didn't notice the key, there's a message every time you leave the area.
Like a thought, that tells you there's a key in there.

i know what you say, it's good, but i hate when the game moves my camera. I try to avoid using it.


And the skybox is a mistake, i see it black on my game.
I don't know what i did wrong.


About the voiceacting, i don't think it's too late to add it.
I can only hope a guy with nice voice skills plays the mod and agrees to say the lines.



And transitions, you found them weird? i thought it was ok.
What other option you know?


you give me too much score sir, i'll try to fix every error you mentioned.
Thank you.
