gm_indoorspaces began as an exercise in trying to make a map that didn't heavily abuse seamless teleportation as much so that people can have fun with navmesh-dependent stuff. That and I wanted to practice the scaling for interior areas, I haven't been very good at that up to this point. Slowly it also became a test of map logic and a little bit of lip-syncing, and as per usual spiraled out of control into a much larger project than I was expecting. This is a dense map, with the option to enable story elements or simply explore freely.

This map also was made with exploration in mind, every door in the map is able to be opened in one way or another. If a door is locked, you may be approaching it from the wrong side or may need to progress further in the story (if you're in story mode)

Quick feature rundown (appropriate spoilers will be marked):

• Fully packed and ready to play!
  
• Heavily interconnected map with lots of paths and areas to find
  
• Ambient mood music system that alters the soundtrack according to a "mood score"
  
• Voiced "npc" (make sure to press USE on him to make him follow you!)
  
• Fully AI-ready with navmesh baked in
  
• Lots of comfy
  
• Lots of creepy
  
• No startling jumpscares but some tense moments
  
• Random events and sequences (try entering areas more than once!)
  
• Adventure mode! Start the map with all story-locked doors unlocked and story sequences disabled. Good for simple exploration or AI chases lmao
  
• Story mode! Start the map with several areas gated by progress through the story. Find lost pages from the previous inhabitant to find a way out!
  
• Really there's quite a few rooms here not gonna lie
  
• Tons of music tracks to listen to!
  
• Some light switches work! (I got lazy lmao)
  
• A whoooooole load of secrets to find
  
• Fun but badly designed posters for my favorite maps (and my own lol)
  
• Bizarre shapes underground
  
• A ritual
  
• Dance floor with four tunes!
  
• Photography gallery of course

Finally, thank you all very much for trying out my maps! I'm still learning quite a bit, but this was a very fun one to put together. I'll work on putting together a video going through the map at some point for people that get stuck, possibly also a written guide! Big ups to library man, the gmod vr vids are inspiring as always. And thank you to you for playing!


If you have any difficulties with finding where to go next in story mode, I've made a video here that takes your through the story line in VR

ULTRA SECRET ZONE

If you're stuck in the story mode, don't worry! I've got a little guide here to tell you where to go after getting each page. REMEMBER! You need to press USE/E on each page to activate certain triggers that advance the story!!!

Page 1

The first page consists of a typewriter test and instructions on how to find the writer's new home away from home. You can find it by following the sound of the piano up the red stairs.

Page 2

The second page is found part-way through following the instructions on the first page. It can be found on a desk next to a green desk lamp in an otherwise unlit and unfinished room.

Page 3/4

These are both found in a bedroom at the end of a long hallway, the only door available. They're on a desk with another lamp and a typewriter. Make sure to read both!

Page 5

Exit the bedroom and notice that a door has appeared to your right. Go through the door, the page is on a desk.

Page 6

Return the way you went to get to page 3 & 4 and notice that an elevator shaft has appeared in the unfinished halls. Go down the ladder and exit the second door on the left, it will lead through a hedge maze to a hotel parking lot. The sixth page is on a small table inside the hotel itself.

Page 7

Follow the exit signs through the curving halls, ignore the door opening on its own, and go through the door to the right. The page is on a large desk with another lamp.

Page 8

The previous page mentions a second floor to the hotel, return to the lobby and note that there's an elevator hall now next to the desk. Enter the lift and wait, then follow the blue hallway. Take the door on the left, then door 3, then enter the house. The page is on the dining room table.

Page 9

The previous page details a spot near the unfinished apartments, head back to the area where you found page 2. The adjoining space with all the interior windows is where you want. You want to find a huge completely dark staircase, this page will be at the top.

Page 10

The final page, can be found in the maze next to the pulsing glowing triangle.

The Ritual

There are three. Bring them to the center. When it goes orange, JUMP.
