A first look at the twisting S-corridor from Paper History. In a world made of cardboard, the shadows are much sharper than they look.

Location complete: The S-Corridor is ready for its first victims. 🛠️📦
From a simple layout to a fully lit, trap-filled gauntlet. The cardboard dungeons are expanding... 🚪👀

A dramatic close-up shot from Unreal Engine 5 showing the beginning of the S-shaped corridor. The scene is illuminated by moody, blue-white light emanating from newly added, atmospheric light sources. The side-crusher trap on the left wall is detailed with realistic cardboard textures. New, thick cardboard columns line the right side of the path, casting deep shadows across the pocked and layered paper walls.
A perspective view of the middle section of the twisty cardboard corridor, now fully lit. A massive overhead crusher is suspended from the ceiling, waiting. Rows of cardboard pillars recede into the distance along the curved path. The lighting highlights the fine, rough grain of the paper material on the columns and walls, creating a highly detailed environment.
The final stretch of the cardboard maze level. Dark, chiseled cardboard columns frame a clear path toward a distorted doorway on the horizon, bathed in intense, bright blue light, hinting at the game's new blue menu aesthetic. Directly in front of the viewer, the trapdoor is integrated seamlessly into the detailed floor texture, appearing almost invisible until you are too close. The atmosphere is dense and full of shadows.
S-shaped corridor - Day 2/3:
The new lighting highlights every fold and tear in the cardboard walls. It's no longer just a path, it's a mood. Pillars are in place, the crushers are set.
Next update in 48h for #Day3 of my sprint!

A 3D render from Unreal Engine 5 showing the start of an S-shaped cardboard corridor. A large mechanical side-crusher, textured to look like heavy, layered paper, is positioned against the wall in an idle state. The environment has a dark, atmospheric lighting that highlights the realistic paper grain and folds on the walls.
A perspective shot of the middle section of the twisty cardboard hallway. A massive overhead crusher is suspended from the ceiling, currently still and waiting to be animated. The scene showcases intricate cardboard modeling with deep shadows, creating a sense of dread in the narrow passage.
The final section of the cardboard dungeon level leading toward a dark exit. In the foreground, a rectangular trapdoor is integrated into the floor, blending with the cardboard textures of the path. The lighting focuses on the distant doorway, making the dangerous floor section in front of the player look even more treacherous.
S-shaped corridor - Day 1/3:
Working on a new twisty path filled with traps! 🪗 The layout is almost ready and I can’t wait to show you how these crushers work. Next progress update in two days! 😉

A perspective view of a dark cardboard hallway in Unreal Engine 5. Red torches on the walls cast a flickering warm glow. In the middle of the floor, wooden-textured trapdoors are visible, blending into the environment. The atmosphere is tense and claustrophobic.
A wide shot of an open area in a cardboard dungeon. Glowing blue lava flows below, illuminating the scene with a cold, supernatural light. Floating platforms are arranged in a path over the lava, creating a challenging platforming section. The blue lighting creates sharp shadows on the paper-textured walls.
Nightmare - Day 4/5:
Red or Blue? 🔴🔵 Danger lurks in every shadow. From the flickering warmth of the torches to the cold glow of the blue lava, the atmosphere is set. Trapdoors and platforms are ready to test your nerves. 🛠️💀

A screenshot from Unreal Engine 5 showing Day 2 of the blockout for Paper History. The level now has a ceiling, creating a claustrophobic feel. Several cardboard-textured columns stand in the hallway. In the center, there are moving platforms and a visible trapdoor mechanism on the floor. The scene is still in the primitive blockout phase, maintaining the raw, cardboard aesthetic.
Nightmare - Day 2/5:
The ceiling is closed-there’s no way out now. 📦 Added columns and moving platforms to test the flow. Watch your step, trapdoors are in! 🛠️💀
The cardboard cage is taking shape.

A screenshot from Unreal Engine 5 showing the early blockout of Level 1 for Paper History. The scene consists of simple 3D boxes forming a hallway and a floor with cardboard textures. There is no ceiling yet, showing the raw 'under construction' phase of the dungeon. The lighting is basic, highlighting the primitive shapes.

The final render of the Paper History dungeon corridor. The scene is a masterclass in paper-craft atmosphere: glowing blue lava flows between rocks, and scattered bones litter the floor. Red torchlight contrasts with the cold blue glow of the lava, illuminating detailed cardboard columns and mechanical traps. The culmination of a 5-day development challenge.

The dungeon is taking shape! Walls updated with barred windows, columns added, and the crusher is now lurking on the ceiling. The interior is nearly finished, but there’s still more to add before the final polish. 💪

A level design blockout of a new corridor in Paper History. The scene shows the basic spatial layout made of untextured grey and brown blocks, representing cardboard walls. The six massive crushers from the previous day are now integrated into a long, winding hallway. The environment is designed to guide the player through an S-shaped path between the traps, showing the scale and proportions of the upcoming level
Building a Nightmare: Day 2/5 🏗️
Today is all about the Blockout. Shaping the corridor to fit the mechanics and testing the player's movement.
It’s raw cardboard for now, but the layout is feeling solid! 🧱📐

New location under construction! Starting with the core mechanic: a 6-crusher gauntlet in an S-pattern.
Getting the timing right is key to making this corridor a deadly dance for the player. 💀💨

I'm building a level section with this beast and... you'll see the rest for yourself! 🌋
Get ready for some paper madness. See you there!

Progress update! 🛠️My cardboard crusher is finally 100% functional. Fixed the return-stroke damage bug and added testing sound effects. It's tough but fair now! Level 1 is comming together :)

Devlog: My crusher became a bit too "enthusiastic"
It was supposed to be lethal down, safe up. Instead, it chose total violence in both directions. A bit too efficient, don't you think?
Scrapping the code before it kills me. Starting fresh for a fairer nightmare!

Is there any meaningful literature on the paper trade in the late Ottoman Empire (second half of the 19th century onwards) that I might have missed? I tried all keywords I could think off in the common databases for scholarly literature and searched through works on the history of printing and […]
Gameplay of "Paper History"!
Navigation is key in this paper-crafted nightmare. Watch as a simple corridor turns into a puzzle. Trapdoors, hidden buttons, and a falling bridge.

A 3D development screenshot of a corridor in the game Paper History. The scene shows the evolution from the previous day: a paper-textured ceiling and cardboard columns have been added. On the floor, a trapdoor mechanism is visible. The composition creates a claustrophobic and mysterious atmosphere, typical of a dark indie horror game.

The corridor is taking shape. Added the ceiling, massive paper columns, and activated the trapdoor mechanism. The space is getting claustrophobic and dangerous.
The darkness is settling in. See you tomorrow

A dark, atmospheric 3D render from a first-person perspective, looking down from a balcony onto a macabre arena. The world is made of tactile paper and cardboard textures. In the distance, a dimly lit exit is visible. Hanging metal cages and a skeleton on the ground add to the surreal horror atmosphere. Moody lighting with deep shadows.
What waits beyond the Arena exit? 💀✂️
The journey is just beginning. Starting Monday, I’ll be sharing a series of renders showing the evolution of a new corridor – from raw blockout to final paper horror.
Stay tuned! 👍
