So I recently decided that I want to have a monorail in my map. Brain please, the scope is already too much.

Progress on my Quake Brutalism Jam 3 map.
Yeah it is a map alright. 1000 monsters 56 secrets in so far. My own 100% test took me 80 minutes.
Now to build act 3 of the map. Thankfully we got another extension so I can take this much easier now. New qbj3 deadline is at Dec 7th.

I Love finding what specific visually recognizable thing is causing a bug to happen in game. Just narrowing it down bit by bit is really fun.
Beyond that you are on your own with the code part haha.

Phew, new Urban Decay update, finally. These broken windows took a lot of work, but I think they were worth it. There's now 940 bloody textures in this thing, so close to the big 1000.

1.4 'The Windows Update'
No, not one of those windows updates. Here are 120 new textures, mostly focused around expanding the selection of windows available. There are new factory and residential windows, a handful of window....

Yes, MD3 doesn't have vertex wobble. The best thing about it though is that it allows us to show BIBLICALLY ACCURATE QBJ3 WEAPONS

Hope I'm not preventing players from progressing with my clever puzzles. Adding some items to point towards the solution haha.
There are so many cool little ideas I've come up with so I want to share at least a few of them here.

Some other angles. The lighting has been in all sorts of different states so it's kind of between looks atm. Been bouncing around colours trying to echo the look of 70s pulp sci-fi and films like Outland. But I feel I ended up drifting too far away from brutalism.

Some QBJ3 progress. Trying to not spoil gameplay things too much, but I like how this is turning out visually.
