I wanted to give everyone a video to either pay tribute to them or encourage them. The designer is truly a great thing in disguise of a game- after all, would you have ever thought that you'd be able to create the things you've created for levels?

Discuss your best moments, and see how many levels you can guess from watching this. There are obvious legends with the occasional lesser-known.

Silent Conversations and a Crow's Final Song!
My latest story, and one of my personal favorites. A girl bound in silence finds the words to say to her prospective girlfriend as they visit her religious father in a dusty town on the edge of Kansas, where the crows' migration south brings forth anchored memories, the path to resolution, and a new start.

Let's see...

The Etheral Mansion
Stone Tower Temple
Calamari Cove
