That logo man, you’re not making a playground, you’re making an action movie!

||HYPE!!||

💪

[hexed leaf]

Excited for this 😁

[crisp matrix]

Thanks man, I hope I’ll be able to finish this map. I’ve run into quite a few a road blocks over the past several months 😅

[smoky marsh]

I’m definitely playing once It’s out and finished.

[crisp matrix]

Since it will probably still be a while before this map is completely done, I’d figured I’d share some screenshots of my progress over the next few days.

Briefing Room:

[smoky marsh]

Two words.

Love.
It.

HYPE!!

Seeing all the progress on all these maps makes me really want to work on my next map.

[crisp matrix]

Looking forward to seeing your next work man. Also thanks for the weevil on Into the Altergrowth.

[smoky marsh]

I’m definitely planning to have an Easter Egg to supreme commander in my next map, as it’s my favourite of your maps.

Also, I have a feeling you may have missed your Easter Egg room in Infernal Wastes, as it’s really hard to find.
It’s behind a random piece of charcoal that most people will never bust.

[crisp matrix]

Oh dang, I’ll have to run through it again when I get time

[smoky marsh]

It’s near the laser pillar in the lava.

[crisp matrix]

Gotcha 👌

[smoky marsh]

Near the first ladybird larva.

You’ll know which one I’m talking about.

[crisp matrix]

Infested Forest:

[smoky marsh]

Bro… is this even grounded at this point?!

Also, definitely nabbing those vines, they look brilliant!

[crisp matrix]

I spent a little too much time on the scenery 😅

[hexed leaf]

The ambience looks incredible fella!

[crisp matrix]

Last one for today.
Remnants of Tower 4:

[crisp matrix]

Thx man

[smoky marsh]

This… isn’t grounded… ITS PEAK!!!

[crisp matrix]

🙌

More pics.

I am so curious on how you did some of this lighting.

[obtuse arch]

Is it time of day changing to stay night?

[crisp matrix]

It’s really a combination of things, but the way to get the super dark lighting is by building under ground in a certain part of the playground. I got the idea after playing @hexed leaf origins map.

[crisp matrix]

The map is nighttime, however if you build in this certain part of the map, it’s always pitch black

[hexed leaf]

That Limbo section turned out creepier than I planned.

Could have made it scarier but...felt it was best not to lol

But in all honesty the atmosphere and lighting looks brilliant!

[crisp matrix]

I take notes from the best! 🙌

[smoky marsh]

Is this on the basic backyard map or the grassbox?

[crisp matrix]

Grass box

[smoky marsh]

What’s the specific spot?

Is it deep down low where everything gets foggy?

[crisp matrix]

Nah I’ll screenshot it, give me a sec

In between all the grids is the spot

[crisp matrix]

Directly below the tunnels

[smoky marsh]

Ah, I see.

[crisp matrix]

Another batch.
Substation 1:

Sub-Tower 1’s Corridor:

[smoky marsh]

I’m getting major “this is the last stand” vibes from this corridor.

[rare swift]

Yo doodle i dm u something

[rare swift]

Idk why but I love this shot

[real shoal]

LFG

[tender plaza]

@crisp matrix that looks insane

Wtf

That aint grounded

[smoky marsh]

I know, axel out here making a straight up sci-fi action movie.

I don’t even know how he comes up with some of this stuff.

[crisp matrix]

💪

[tender plaza]

Your work so far reminds me of poppy playtime chapter 4

[crisp matrix]

Hmm, It does have that vibe 🤔

[crisp matrix]

Well it was a good run, I’ll save the sequel for Grounded 2!

[rare swift]

Supreme commander 3?

[crisp matrix]

yooooo

[smoky marsh]

Pull a goat simulator.

Also, very glad I’m not the only one saving my project for grounded 2.

[rare swift]

It would be smart to

[smoky marsh]

Especially with all that juicy mage stuff.

[rare swift]

Your a wizard doodle

[crisp matrix]

I think I may release this map in an early build state just so y’all can see the absolute monstrosity I’ve created

[smoky marsh]

Early Access maybe?

[crisp matrix]

More like prehistoric access, this map ain’t even close to done

[crisp matrix]

Final Batch.
The Vault:

Hidden [REDACTED]:

[smoky marsh]

This doesn’t even look real at this point!

[rare swift]

How you get access to grounded 2 early

Or atleast thats what it looks like

[crisp matrix]

Appreciate it guys! 🙌

[smoky marsh]

Definitely playing this if/when it releases!

[crisp matrix]

I’m about to drop my statement regarding release in a minute

[smoky marsh]

K.

[crisp matrix]

This map will be released tonight as an early release build.

There is about ~10 minutes of actual gameplay. Most areas of the map including Easter eggs are still unfinished and it is riddled with bugs. Unfortunately, it most likely will not receive anymore substantial updates.

Supreme Commander 2 was an over ambitious idea of mine, and Grounded struggles to run it.

Sup Com will definitely be returning in Grounded 2 though!

-Axel

[smoky marsh]

Neat!

Have fun gamers! - SRB-T5Q-J9H

[smoky marsh]

🎉

[hexed leaf]

Will be sure to give this a go soon as i'm back off holiday.

Can't get over how great the lighting and overall atmosphere looks 👌🏼

[crisp matrix]

Don’t expect too much, unfortunately this is basically a failed project at this point 😅

[smoky marsh]

Enjoy your holiday Rosso!

Anyhoo, this map is awesome.

Played it this morning, and I gotta say, it was overwhelming, but so cool.

[slate cape]

I hope this is complete soon

[hexed leaf]

I finally managed to have a go on the weekend.

It's very overwhelming with the amount of stuff to take in....but my god it looks really good! 😂

[slate cape]

I’ll try this when it’s out of beta for sure

[celest bluff]

Nice It was fun and felt like a movie

[crisp matrix]

Hey Gooby taking a little hiatus from Grounded Rn, may return to this project later if there’s still interest

[crisp matrix]

Thanks, Yeah I went a little crazy with the FX 😅

[crisp matrix]

Glad you enjoyed the preview 🙌

[hexed leaf]

Not sure if you're aware, but the devs confirmed that custom mode and playground won't be there at launch....but they are working on them. So good news for future.
