A screenshot of the pipe room. This room acts as a break between the larger water arena and slime puzzle rooms. The intent was to teach the player about using switches to interact with gates which will be used later on in the level. In this case, a gate lowers to open a path into the slime puzzle room.

A screenshot of the ramp room. This room is the room right before the elevator sequence. The player must activate a switch to open a set of large mechanic doors (barely seen on the far left of the screenshot).

A screenshot of the elevator sequence. The player steps through a large mechanical door and onto a extending walkway that leads to a large elevator that is home to a spread of computers. Activating the center switch starts the sequence and the elevator lowers into the first of four positions. Each position results in a wave of enemies, pickups, a sewer pipe that needs to be sealed to continue draining the slime below, and for the elevator to progress. This sequence ends in the level's finale where a series of five sewer pipes must be sealed before a boss enemy spawns. Overall, the elevator sequence was an immense amount of work. Far more than I was expecting as it took up half of my allowed time to just get it working, never mind getting it to what it looks like in the final version.

A screenshot of the final (drained) version of the elevator sequence. A main difference between this version and the previous screenshot is the changing of the sequence of sewer pipes. Originally, I was going to have only 3 elevator positions but I found it better for players to have to seal one pipe first then the following positions would have a full encounter + pipes to seal.

A screenshot of the first water arena. The player activates a switch in the center of the room and the water (not shown) drains, revealing more of the room as waves of enemies spawn until the water fully drains and the path forward is revealed at the bottom. A view into a large pipe shows the water levels within the pipe. Should the player backtrack to the previous area, a locked door can now be opened to reveal a secret.

A screenshot of the slime puzzle room. The player slides down a pipe from the previous room that leads to the player being stuck in this room and they must activate multiple switches to lower the slime to progress. While the switches are activated, the slime lowers while the platforms rotate and the path forward is revealed. Behind a slime waterfall (not shown) hides a secret because behind every waterfall is treasure.

#blocktober is here and that means showing off some of my work for the year. I participated in Map Center's Sewer Jam! I really enjoyed exploring the changing of water levels. If you'd like to try the pack you can find it here: www.moddb.com/games/quake-... 1/3

The connecting room to player start. Here I introduce players to sewage and using switches to interact with the environment.

The slime puzzle room. Navigate the room by lowering the slime levels.

The elevator sequence. Ride the elevator to it's conclusion to finish the job.

I spent the last month working with the folks in the Map Center discord to put together a Quake 2 Sewer mapping jam. You can find the download page here: www.moddb.com/games/quake-...

We'd all really appreciate it if you gave it a try!
