The Tribute Room
Top Down
The ranged enemies in the first round of this will likely be removed, I will see how they affect the difficulty of the first pass of this room.
The smaller maps are the original from the original Top Down Map made for this project.
Gameplay Walkthrough
Visit 1
The player enters the room for the first time either from the west door or the south door. The door closes behind them and they are greeted by Shambler. They maneuver and the statue, columns and half cover as they fight to kill the Shambler before it kills the player.
Picks up stationed around the room give the player some back up.
Once the player kills the Shambler, the door behind the statue will open allowing them out.
The player will get a chance to explore the room. They’ll find that there are more than enough pickups in the area for this encounter. They will also find another door on the east wall of the room.
Visit 2
The player enters from the east door, which closes behind them. The other doors in this room are now closed as well. As they walk through the door, they trigger the hidden doors on the statue and the columns to open. From inside the statue, outsteps a Shambler. Zombies step out from the doors on the columns into areas outside the cover in the middle.
The player fights the Shambler and Zombies to the death. It’s during this time that those extra pickups become useful to the player. More Zombies keep coming from the column doors.
Once the player kills the Shambler and the Zombies, the southern door opens letting the player go free.
The Labyrinth

The smaller maps are the original from the original Top Down Map made for this project.
Gameplay Walkthrough
The player enters the room from a door on the west wall. The platform they are on lets them look out at the maze below them. To the left, they can see a key signaling to them that they need to get it.
They enter the maze.
If they go right, they will find a room with some pickups where they will fight a Knight. Another Knight will ambush the player once they enter that room as well. If they shoot the button that is on the western wall of this room, the north wall of the room, which is a hidden door, will open releasing a portal. If the player goes through the portal, they enter a secret room with the electricity gun and cell pickups. Once they pick up the gun, the exit door is opened and a hidden door will open unleashing two more Knights on the player. The player can continue to the left of the maze after this little detour.
If they go left, a Knight comes out and ambushes them. As they continue down that path, they find the room with the key. Once they grab the key though, a swarm of four zombies comes after them. As they continue down this path, they fight Zombies. There are a few spots where they will be ambushed by Knights depending on which path they take to the center. There will be pickups in the small rooms the player finds along the way.
Once the player gets to the middle of the maze, they enter a room with an elevator platform in the middle of it. Once they get on the platform, they are lifted to the next room.
