Here's an interesting fact: you're not breathing real air. It's too expensive to pump this far down. We just take carbon dioxide out of a room, freshen it up a little, and pump it back in. So you'll be breathing the same room full of air for the rest of your life. I thought that was interesting.

Cool!
I really feel like those trees need snow on them or something. It might be light snow, but it's still a little odd. icicles hanging from the truss, or maybe the ceiling, would be a nice touch as well.

Yeah, would be cool, but we have limited filesize now that the map is nearly done (its almost 100mb, workshop limit :lol: )

No, there won't be. I considered it at first, but decided to stick with stock lines, using the GLaDOS voice we all know and love :biggrin:.

Ok, I'm finished now. pictures containing a huge grate floor that would look better as a normal floor

MY EYES! THAT GRATE! AAAAAA!

seriously though, i think it'd look better as a normal floor, or an 8 thin floor supported by pistons.

I like the grate. Gives the map a more 'open' feel.

That picture would help the first creator of a "skyfox" with the flying console.

EDIT:

And to stay relevant, Here is a video of a void cube in a limbo themed test.

Hopefully I can get someone to help me get the void cube to have it's own skin (Black cube with glowing white cracks)

And then a screenshot.

@Arachnob last picture just looks great!
But if i put a fan on an normaly metal support, how does it spin? ^^ Maybe there should be some cables, or something other, but i think the fan needs energy :biggrin:
