For Cryptic Passage
An extended version of level Gothic Library for Cryptic passage, based on the cut content from the beta version of the map.
Credits go to Shawn Swift and Robert Travis for the original map(s), I only filled in the gaps between the beta and final versions.

___________________________________________
A couple of weeks ago, I interviewed Shawn Swift (see https://iamrealbuilder.tumblr.com/ ). He sent me a beta version of Gothic Library which had a more fleshed out layout with more rooms.
These rooms were mostly empty, and ended up being cut for the final version of the level.
Gothic Library DX aims at merging the final version of the map with the rooms and layout of the beta version, while also filling in the empty rooms in the process. The goal is to stick as close as possible to the original intent and to the style of the two original authors. Thus, giving the map the few extra minutes of gameplay I feel it should have had.
More info in the "Making Of" folder, if you care so much as to read through that.
