Eprox' Time:
1-2 months (on and off working on different projects)

Details:
This was a design for an opening act for our RPG Server Paroria, Before Odyssey was created. It was to be full of small quests to understand the new changes to the game (you might see stray glass blocks ontop of wooden fences, with spout they are lamp posts with real working textures).
Once you were nearing the end a invasion of monsters would take over, when you woke up from being knocked out by a falling bit of debris youd see the town is destroyed and youd have to make your way to the ship and to the mainlands. Thus this spawn was an entire "tutorial island"

Ideas:
The idea we had wanted to go for was a kind of small town on an island wich the king watched over in his large castle. (Zfuture made the castle.. it was a bit bigger then we had wanted)
The wool are banners that worked on spout (they looked like actual hanging banners) also the shops would have signs sticking off of em showing what kind of store it was.
We had also planned the monsters arrival to be a cutscene, we had a working idea for a cutscene but the coding for it + doing it several times over for everysingle member would crash the server.

I was the leader of these projects although i do not claim all of it as mine. Unlike my 15k x 15k map this was made as a joint effort, althought it was made long ago and i am rarely in touch with anyone else.
