Testing how the map felt from the enemy tower to get a feeling of scale.
One of the early versions of the map before final sculpt changes were made to the terrain. The building at the back of the map was removed from the final version of the map.
Before the last changes were made, the player could walk through many mountains and hills. I didn't feel they were needed, and the map felt too big, so I removed them and decreased the size.
The initial sculpt of the map. These mountains did not make it to the final version.
