And random drawings our characters made

Also, the map from bird's eye view, because I still can't believe how huge it turned out. I was so burned out from building it all, gods. I genuinely think that if I hadn't started using schematics and instead decided to built everything myself, I would end up in early grave. Next project will be done 100% by me though (it's gonna take 5 years and all of my sanity)

This is the map we used as a base btw (we changed it a lot though): Map

Will make another post with different screenshots of the map soon (the parts I didn't make or where I used schematics)

The lab! Probably the most lore important build on the whole server, everything started here and everything ended here. This is the place where rozkwit (the bloom - name for sculk in this universe) originated. This is also where the first infected happend (which was my characters older brother). When we found this place in lore it was 90% infected with bloom and the science team overseeing the experiment moved out to a different part of the facility (the actually nice looking part). I think my favorite part of building this was making sure the sculk parts looked overgrown and almost wild. My only regret was giving players the purification potion, since it destroyed a lot of my work, but at least they had fun cleaning that mess.

And a small fun fact, I come up with the the name bloom before I knew of the blooming biome in deeper and darker. I guess this name just fits XD

The Subway! I really wanted to build something in art deco, ok? Does it make sense? No. Do I care? Not at all XD

At first the subway was meant to be a shortcut between different sectors of the map, but there wasn't enough time to build it all. So instead I made it into a space specifically for one of the characters (Jenny). She basically took over an old camp of an unnamed group and lived there. I also used the subway as an excuse to build another cave with plants (I just realized I have a tendency to build them).

Next we have Grota (Grotto). This was built by the same people who made the gardens. Grota was made purely for recreation and to get away from scorching sun of the Dunes. This is also where The apple tree grows (probably the only one within something like a 500 mile radius). This, gardens and subway are probably the only lush places left in this part of district 25. It took a lot of time, effort and illegal plant trading (they got some plants from districts 1-5) to make these places what they are right now.

So, I finally found some time to do screenshots of my builds from E31D. Also, loreeeeeeee (this will be in multiple posts for clarity and easier viewing).

Starting with Wiszące Ogrody (Hanging Gardens). This was a cemetery made by a group that lived in the city before the experiment. Some people that died in lore got to have their graves here. It goes down in a spiral and there are multiple points where you can just fall. I really wanted to convey that people who build this didn't really care about safety and were skilled enough to save themselves if something did happen. I thought a lot about the type of culture people from Pustkowie (Wasteland) would have and with this specific group it always came back to celebrating life. This is why the cemetery is so colorful and lived in. People wouldn't come here just to mourn, they would come here to celebrate the person that died. In a world full of tragedies they wanted a place of balance, a place that would grant a nice experience while visiting (even if they were visiting graves).

RIP Delta (Lucjan), Lily, Naomi and Jenny (Sophia is an npc, so no rip for her XD)

Irida is definitely one of my favorites to design, even though I don't like her that much.
