Superhero themed puzzle map

[tychusfinley]

I've finally had some time to work on a new puzzle map and will be posting updates here to keep myself motivated. This new map will be similar to my 2 previous ones in that it is mostly puzzle focused with some action adventure elements although this one will have a new setting (superhero themed). Playable with up to 4 players (down from 6 since the last map) and still will be soloable.

Currently around 40% done with the map. First boss fight is mostly complete (aiming to have around 3 bosses total).

Here's a tiny teaser pic as I don't want to spoil much.

Feel free to drop ideas or feedback from my previous maps that you'd like to see incorporated in this. There are some old mechanics returning, and some new ones, but most of the game is still being made up on the fly

Awesome, can't wait.
Your previous two maps are in my top 3 puzzle maps I played.
Chess puzzles were nice The hook and portals puzzles too.

Update: About 50% done. First boss is finalized now creating the layout for the second boss "dungeon" area.

You start with the basic interact ability and unlock more abilities as you progress.
Confirmed Abilities:

This is mainly used to talk to npcs and interact with items/objects. (Also special interactions such as punching, etc).

Example1

Example2

Name and description is a work in progress for this one but the mechanics are set (Also adds strength). (Non-target ability)


The map will also contain cinematics/cutscenes although they will be as brief as possible.

Next update will be when the second boss fight is almost done which will hopefully be in 1-2 weeks. I had originally wanted to release this map on Halloween.

Awesome, can't wait.

Chess puzzles were nice The hook and portals puzzles too.

What's the other map in your top 3? I love those puzzle/riddle maps which inspired me to make my own but they are too few and far between.
This map won't contain the hook ability like previous maps but I do have one idea for a "hook and portal" type of puzzle that I will include in this one. I also hadn't intended on making chess puzzles in this one... but I likely won't be able to resist making atleast one chess themed puzzle eventually.

Mind Breaker
Treasure Cave
Calico Jack & The Mysterious Isles
Chernobyl: Lost Riddles newest version doesn't work on Reforged, but 0.30c or 0.30d on epicwar should work
Leraux doesn't work on Reforged
Curse of the Spice Island not really a puzzle map, but has a similar style

It looks good; will it be compatible with wc legacy 1.26 1.27?
