I Built a Map Designed to Kill Every Player

Power-ups are supposed to help players. So naturally, I used one to lure them into a room and fill it with toxic gas. In Episode 5 of To Release, I’m building BioLabs, the first map for my chaotic multiplayer game. It features tempting power-ups, lockdown doors and a toxic gas trap designed to punish anyone greedy enough to take the bait. --- I've started more games than I can count... but I've never actually released one. Welcome to To Release - my attempt to finally change that. Every two weeks, I'll be sharing the journey of building my first multiplayer game from scratch. You'll see everything from programming and pixel art to design mistakes, bugs, rewrites, and the occasional existential crisis. Whether you're a fellow developer or just enjoy watching ambitious projects come to life, I hope you'll enjoy following the journey. -- 💬 Discord: /   / discord   --- 🎵 Music Music provided by Panda Beats Music / @pandabeatsmusic Thanks for watching!
