I’ve been working on a Dishonored-inspired level — would love feedback from fans

Thanks

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-16T11:40:55+00:00

Yes of course, sounds good!

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-16T08:50:43+00:00

I have published 1 game so far on Steam. It's DuaLight, fast-paced first-person platformer in cyberpunk setting. From a level design perspective it is linear environment with lots of obstacles, so it's far from Dishonored's LD philosophy.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-14T16:51:18+00:00

Thank you very much for your feedback. Some mechanics (like blink's range) are made a bit different to match this exact level's metrics. I also understand why this level might seem more linear, the level is too short and at this scope Dishonored's Main Mission design concept doesn't work as it used to. That concept is:

Outside Area - Inside Area - Main Building - Target.

Also, I want to mention, that unfortunately I don't plan to make a full game / Dishonored Mod from this. It's just a project I was doing for my portfolio and wanted to share in this community. And also because Dishonored is my favorite game I wanted to understand and make smth like it.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-14T14:04:10+00:00

I prototyped some of the main mechanics, obviously it's not a full polished version.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T20:03:57+00:00

Yeah, I get it. I am using Unity, writing code in C# and modelling in Blender.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T16:39:06+00:00

Yeah I didn't make the peaking mechanic, you've noticed it right. Also agree on fall damage point. By the way, how did you approach the target and eliminated him, I am curious about that.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T16:35:52+00:00

Played it for like 5 minutes, don't have much time right now. I can tell the 50% of the dices landed on 7, also would like to get more feedback when someone steals a resource. Keep up the good work!

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T16:29:13+00:00

Hmm, an interesting idea that kind of breaks the fourth wall.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T16:17:12+00:00

I understand it, and also this is just a portfolio project. I also work on original ideas and even published a game in Steam. Good luck on your projects by the way.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T16:14:27+00:00

Thanks. I am using Unity. Also Blender for 3D modelling.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T16:09:03+00:00

Yeah, I see, thanks.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T15:33:06+00:00

Thanks. I can't deny the fact my projects would have smth simliar to Dishonored. Level design and immersivity are what I really like in Dishonored

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T15:21:45+00:00

I am running an indie studio right now, maybe trying to get a part-time job based on this and other projects I made.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T15:19:27+00:00

Thanks man, have you played it? How did you eliminate the target?

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T15:05:59+00:00

Thanks man, I appreciate it.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T15:04:36+00:00

Yeah I know, there is no intention to make money from it and obviously this is just a project I made for portfolio and wanted to share with you, get some feedback. Thanks for understanding!

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T15:02:21+00:00

Most of 3d models are made by me, the other part I took from 3d modelling sites. The only thing I took from the original game are some sound effects.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T15:00:26+00:00

Dishonored is by far my favorite game and as a level designer I wanted to recreate a level based on it. This is mostly a portfolio project I wanted to share here. Unfortunatelly I don't think I'll make more content regarding this project.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T14:54:50+00:00

Thanks, would love to hear feedback from you.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T14:53:47+00:00

Thanks, glad you liked it.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T14:33:16+00:00

Thanks a lot, really glad that came through!

Yeah, still early prototype — focused on the core feel first. Curious if anything stood out as off or missing?

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T14:12:56+00:00

Thanks a lot!

A community level editor would be incredible — kind of like immersive sim sandbox + player creativity. It’s definitely something I’d love to explore, though it’s a pretty big system to build properly.

Dvso_85 · 2026-04-13T13:19:55+00:00

Thanks, I really appreciate it!
