#FindsFriday #Celtic: `Three-dimensional depictions of animals appeared on all sorts of every-day objects. Small statues were also common, and were all skilfully cast using the lost-wax technique. Large game animals such as boars, stags and roe-deer, horses and oxen were preferred subjects. 1/2

Ah, these stylish clips are not obvious or mandatory paths at all. They're usually shortcuts or things that I make up haha. The usual path people take is a longer, winding path to the right of the fans.

And finally, we gotta end with a ‘little guy’, right? Here’s an Archaic terracotta figure from Boeticia of a boar, now at the Met Museum. They were able to compare the figure to a similar one in Berlin to determine it was probably a full, standing figure once. www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...
A broken terracotta figure depicting a boar. The only surviving pieces are of the head and front of the body, as well as one leg.

No fall damage on the bar swings for the cool factor haha. Thank you! Not every level is gonna look like this dingy city, we have some brighter environments and one based on a park! (Villa Borghese)

Mainly inspired by the smooth, stylishness of it. And how physics + momentum plays a part. I would like to work an actual surf mechanic in though, because it would be too fun :D

Mirrors Edge x Counter Strike Surf where you parkour on anything (real) Be smooth n stylish in dystopian Rome. Or just walk around and explore, I can't tell you what to do. It's called Boars in Rome! #pitchyagame

It looks very playful and creepy at the same time. Early paleo art was a cool rabbit hole to explore

took a risk with some wobbly LD path, so we gave each area a distinct colour so people got less lost

Benji Savage @ceplok.bsky.social · 01/06/2026
I call this stylish clip "Mirrors Edge in a megastructure" (because it's a colourful area) needs better lights tho :'D #indiedev #gamedev #parkour #indiegames

Good luck! It already looks intriguing. And if you need more playtesters later I love those types of games :P

Thank you! Yeah our artist is from Rome and he is sick of seeing the same monuments in games and movies all the time haha. Maybe it could do with a refresh but I haven't thought of a replacement word that also starts with P... :D

I have released my level scripting i/o system, it's called JoeIO and it works great for me and at work but it's early so be gentle and just holler if you come across any weirdness. An explanatory video is below www.joewintergreen.com/joeio-a-leve...

Just finished a trailer/update video for a new level & new art. Way bigger than the last one, lots of ideas explored and lots of playtesting still to be done. Very happy with how it's turning out! Got a big backlog of stylish clips to post, too :D #indiedev #parkour #gamedev #indiegames
