For the past few days I have been working on the greybox. I sketched it out and transferred it into Trenchbroom. After building up a small part of the level I realized that there was a problem with the size of a map that Trenchbroom allows you to have. With this information I had to go back to the layout sketches and redraw them. I ended up designing a whole new level from the start.

I've been working on the map for a few days now and really hammering down on some finer details. I got all the moveable parts working after struggling with it for a while. I was able to get lighting in, which took a lot of trial and error to get things right. There is a world light that acts like the sun casting shadows around the whole map. I was also able to get a skybox in to make it seem like dawn.
