I've been thinking alot about what to do with the central areas of my levels. i.e rest hubs, puzzle rooms and combat areas. I've wanted to keep the idea that my level becomes a twisted reality so i've looked into some of the strange/different civilizations of the past. Some of the Inca and Mayan architecture brings back memories of Tomb Raider. The designs of the buildings seem perfect for maze layouts and traps. I personally believe that these civilizations led a basic life governed by spiritual belief and physical survival. I think this could lead to some scary character designs in loin cloth.
I'm also researching a little on buried bodies. I've stopped short of taking a shovel with me. I'm not interested in the gross stuff but in the way people have been entombed. I found some fascinating imagery on pompei in which a volcano erupted and covered the city in ash.
