This week, I focused on cementing the map design for the final contract quest, which will bring players back to the ruins of the Lingrave Clinic.

changedThis week, I focused on cementing the map design for the final contract quest, which will bring players back to the ruins of the Lingrave Clinic . This was a bit of a challenge to conceptualize at first, since the location was already in a ruined state during the Hunter Route. The question became how much worse could it realistically get in the Vampire Route?
changedRather than simply reusing the old layout, I approached it from a different angle. The player will now start from the middle section of the map, with many familiar pathways either blocked off by debris or removed entirely.
addedIn essence, it uses the skeleton of the original design while introducing new twists to keep returning players on their toes. Additionally, I went and edited the tileset for the clinic as well as the wastelands area to give it grim and grimey tone. Items like boxes and shelves have a bit more ruined detail, which I added in by hand.

On top of that, some members of the Knights of Friedrich have made their way into the clinic, tasked with eliminating the remaining lamias in the Wastelands. As you explore the decayed halls in search of the Wandering Experiments, you’ll have to contend with both threats.

Speaking of lamias, I have a preview of a lamia bite scene that plays upon defeating one and feeding from her:

If you’re interested, Tier 2+ patrons can view the full version now on the Crimson Veil Discord:

It will also be available on Patreon later this week:

Lastly, as I mentioned last week, I’ll be heading to Europe for two weeks starting at the end of this week. Because of the time difference and travel schedule, there will be no Weekly Updates until I return. I do plan on bringing my work with me and continuing development where I can, though my time will be limited.

I may have a small update to share on Sunday, April 26th, depending on how much progress I’m able to make while abroad.

Thanks for your understanding and I’ll speak with you all again once I return!
