Ok, some answers to the questions
Do you have some kind of background for it? Or maybe puzzles?
Always difficult to know where to start eh... well, the Age came first, but yes there is a backstory taking shape and there will be puzzles once I've worked out how they fit into that story. I'd like to focus on writing the Age first, then revisit it from a puzzle perspective.
How big is the file size for this place so far?
Current size of all files is 8.76MB, and it loads nice and fast.
Have a certain combo move that giant mammoth in the tree. As it turns, light passes through a part of it onto the pond.
Inside the pond, a new image... and new puzzle answer. Return to all the stone statues and set em all to THAT alignment. Then, that one stone with the gecko on it rolls back to reveal a cave.
Nice ideas... I won't steal them, but I think I might just come back to those and consult you when I'm at the puzzle implementation stage. Thanks for the suggestions, appreciated.
By the way, does d'eux mean, 'of himself'?
Not that I know of. It's my D'ni spelling of 'Deux', French for 'two' (it's a
long story). And I hasten to add, it's NOTHING to do with the Celine Dion album of the same title
Not only is your art work wonderful, but the reality of your sump textures – the drying clay floor in a sump area, where water really would collect and where it really has stood, after the once a year rains – all this reality combined with flawless drafting makes for a wonderful lifting of our GoW spirits.
I'm glad you noticed that detail. I very much take inspiration from Atrus and the way he wrote Ages - firstly understanding the fundamental structure of the basic elements of an Age. If the primary components that form an Age are physically correct (atmosphere, water, minerals etc. and the proper interaction between them) then the Age will take on a reality of it's own. Then everything else will 'fit'. This is why I have often referred to Eh'ko as being 'stable', because everything that forms it's underlying solidity and believability is now in place. And if it's lifting spirits, then I consider it a job well worth doing...
Hope that helps,
