Games that Don't Fake the Space
🕑 Added 2023-07-06 15:30:08 +0000 UTCIt's a video about architecture, in a sense.
Here's the link if you'd like to watch it on Nebula! https://nebula.tv/videos/jacob-geller-games-that-dont-fake-the-space

Yeah, I kept thinking about MyHouse.wad - a recent Doom mod that casually recreates, at scale, the impossible, endless labyrinth of the Navidson house, complete with the terrifying noise, for no other reason than to unnerve the hell out of the player. It does a few sneaky silent teleportation tricks, but the majority of the space you can explore is exactly what it looks like. It's a completely optional area that most people won't even find without knowing where to look, it's completely empty, there's no in-game reason for you to go in... and yet once you find it, it's impossible not to.

I can't believe you held off alluding to the spaces under the house in HoL. π Amazing stuff, I love your poems on architecture. Did you read Poetics of space?

I saw the notification and immediately hoped NaissanceE would be mentioned, beyond delighted that it is
