The Pyre Complete

The map design for The Pyre is complete! The Pyre is a series of caves filled with liquid hot magma. The feral Morg make their home here, tucked away in small dens embedded in the cavern walls. The player carefully must pick and choose his fights while traversing the area, lest he find himself overun by angry Morg.

Small, tube-like tunnels connect the different levels in The Pyre, appearing as small holes in the ground. Although they might seem somewhat disorienting at first, the player must master them in order to reach his objective.

Last week I mentioned this area was called “The Ashen Steppes”, but I decided to call it “The Pyre” after I finalized the design and determined it wasn’t entirely appropriate. Enjoy the preview!
