What is “The WOW Factor?” It is things in a map which make you go, “WOW!!!” Received two new maps from Devlin & KAZ last night. The first being a revised version of their level, The Japanese Gardens.

early screen shots from his level.
Today’s submission for Link of the Day comes from WetWired of SID. It is an interesting little article on Raven Software’s Soldier of Fortune. Postmortem: Raven Software’s Soldier of Fortune . A solid idea and a basis for design are ALWAYS important. Thanks, WetWired!
