Welcome to the

Even a topic 10 years old can be still valid today so it's profitable to read 'em.
Especially this
topic.
Check out the Search function. There are commentaries on all the variations such as Rubicon, Eternal, Tempus Irae the lost levels, etc., for the finding.
Post your work in the appropriate Pfhorum
Topic: Io! Vide quod creavit!. (Hey! lookit what I did! - they like Latin around here)
And some people will tell you what's good about it and what's wrong with it - sometimes technical, sometimes just opinion but don't take it personal, yet always informative.
There are some films too. The one below, I copied from a Tour of Duty post on the
Story Forum (another good place to read). It plays on Marathon: Durandal.
Here and
here are a couple o recent creations with criticism.
I don't know anything about mapping, etc., but I read these then play the scenario to find if I can see the point of the criticism.
Creators and players have different opinions. All my opinions are strictly from the point of view of one particular player (me).
Be patient. Take your time. It's about art. It's about
style.
Smooth talkin slow walkin Marathon style.
I just play 'em; I don't know how they work.
