I made a new playlist of videos for this competition with more detailed reviews and complete playthrus of each map: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXH3i5dgtKlezhBlC4gSqULcwB7SxdwcB

Fix for people having cubemap issues. It's Vulkan. If you're running on Vulkan and CAN use DirectX, switch to DirectX instead.

Box was awesome. Then, I spent over 20 minutes stuck in the endless loop on Null, on my hands and knees looking for clues. All there was was the pointer on the ground and the (pretty unreliable) sound cue. Then I thought, "Oh, maybe the point is that you die here, stuck in this endless blank dimension, running in circles and starving to death in the dark?" Absolutely brilliant, bravo.

Cubemaps on the hub map and the first 2/3 maps in the list are broken, everything is purple. So far I've not been very impressed by the maps, though I haven't been through them all. Distinct lack of player direction, or incredibly frustrating gameplay/mechanics (looking at you Infiltration).

I love when mapmakers using Gordon Gloves. Its good to get back in HEV.

I made videos for most of the maps in case you get stuck. Not all of them are free of bugs, but that's not surprising in a month-long competition when a lot of these creators are in school or whatnot. If you get stuck, hopefully they are useful to you. As always, the fun in this game is experiencing the challenges and puzzles for the first time. Please don't lean on my videos unless you're really hung up, as it might ruin the experience for you. Time to get spooky! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXH3i5dgtKlfKVqUVc0EX7cW-EF398lhf

Box has a reliable crash; in the room after the white keycard, try opening the bottom-right most door. I had it crash three times when doing this specific spot.

The second map (below Box), I couldn't get out of an endless loop when trying to find the correct direction. Sometimes the positive noise would immediately play the negative noise. I think I was crossing the threshold multiple times before my position was reset/moved, causing this problem.

@Spoobs The Lobby map or one of the contest maps?
