15:43 "Some people *Scar* might fall in there and that'll make me happy" The way he just adds scar in without any pause or reaction had me dying.

Suggestion for the river: At a certain hazard level, maybe some magma blocks could be revealed under the water to suck hermits down

[@justin.booth.]

If they were right at the edge of the river it would be super challenging to get back up, I love it! Also what if the river led to some flooded caves/caverns with drowneds?

[@dying2survive298]

Awesome idea. If he don’t see this someone should mention it on a stream

[@aaly.aaly.oxenfree]

@@justin.booth. It could also be a parkour room to increase the challenge and it could lead back to the ice cave/maze section (before the ravagers).

[@delegea6538]

[@FOEILELIJK]

Additionally: honey blocks with item frames & a completely white (snow) map. Makes it impossible to get out in certain spots.

[@dexterm2003]

You could do a temporary ice bridge using an armor stand with frost walker boots like Etho did in season 6. Then you have full controller of when it drops and it fits the theme nicely. You could probably turn all of the armor stand stuff to invisible with the book I am assuming.

[@loganstrong5426]

That was actually the first idea in the stream, but Frost Walker ice needs a high light level to melt, so he decided against it.

[@programmer137]

Good idea! Either that or he could get Jono to do a soundtrack for him

[@RedmarKerkhof]

Ah yes a competition. Also known as getting multiple people do to free work for you.

[@laartje24]

The problem with these competitions is, that even if they are done purely for fun, and participants know exactly what they sing up for, people on the internet are extremely quick and ferocious with trowing a lot of blame that it is only to get the youtuber/streamer free stuff. Even if they are going out of their way to trow the event and make it fun, while they could get it done way more cheep/efficiency by just commissioning it. It has gotten to a point that most don't even wanna deal with community events anymore. It is really sad that we can't have nice things because of that. I have to specify, it are not the artists who trow blame, it are people outside the art community. Even if the artist make statements that they were treated perfectly, the toxic outside people don't listen.

[@epicrory1903]

Just make sure the wardens are far enough away that they don’t attack the ravangers

[@AJ-Palermo]

I think he's planning on spacing the levels apart and using wool so that doesn't happen

[@jasonreed7522]

@@AJ-Palermo every level will already need about 6-8 blocks worth of "access space" for him to run all the redstone guts and run around refilling stuff. (Just like how the original decked out had a decent amount of space around the actual game space) But considering the warden detects in a 16block radius and shoots upto 20blocks vertically I don't think the reasonable maintenance spacing is sufficient. (It also doesn't seem fair to be shot from a warden on a different floor from you) So i guess Tango better get an auto wool farm going because his maintenance floors are going to need to be made from it. He also will need to decide how the paths between level 2 & 3 will work so that the player doesn't have a refuge but the wardens and ravagers don't interact. (Probably bubblevators are the best bet)

[@Dilbet]

@@jasonreed7522 I think he has already talked about that, the levels will be spaced apart and I don’t think he minds that players can have a little bit of refuge between floors

[@uniwolfgamer1094]

Floors 1 and 3 have ravengers and floors 2 and 4 have wardens. He mentioned that in the last video.

[@eaglegosuperskarmor]

couple of ideas: In addition to paths closing off with high hazard, on the first floor you could have sections that players can fit through that ravagers can't, but open up to let ravagers through at high hazard. second idea I had would be to drop snowballs on occasion on the first/second floors for use against the warden, so the player has to pick them up while travelling to the third/fourth floor but once they get there it's a limited supply to distract the warden

[@amaryllis0]

Now that you've lowered the water level of the icy river, you could add back in the powdered snow border idea? And maybe you'll be able to hide a frost-walker-armor-stand-pushing contraption under the snow layers? Honestly I think the 'wow factor' of giving the players a fancy experience is underrated! I made a vanilla redstone adventure map inspired by Decked Out 1, and my favourite things were those moments that aim to impress the player with a spectacle, like draining a whirlpool which was previously an obstacle so you can dive down the maw; finding a secret lab and opening up a wall which looks onto the central chamber, when it appeared as just a plain cave wall from the other side; a creepy manor whose door slams shut behind you when you enter; a deep cave suddenly opening up onto an underground village; a volcanic geyser that randomly erupts, and whose eruptions you ride the wave of to escape the depths; a cave which suddenly lights up as you approach to reveal an imposing serpent who you can talk to by selecting responses from a dispenser

[@barelycompetentgaming1980]

A couple of Allays would make good helpers in the ice farm during the collection phase

[@Aurioksavenger]

One cool hazard could be revealing strays from holes in the walls, their slow arrows should really mess players up trying to run from a ravager, and they make sense on a cold dungeon....

[@Respectable_Username]

I just love how the Hermits are like "Take what you need for Decked Out please take it all whatever I can provide for Decked Out you can have". They love it just as much as we do!

[@1stAshaMan]

Don't forget that if you have a single 0 light level spot you can put a brown mushroom in it to light it up

For the ice trees, they would look cool with the acacia stems rather than the quartz block, just a thought :)

[@garettjohnson6978]

FINALLY! SOMEONE DOES IT RIGHT! The quests work as follows you 1- look for a quest. 2- once you find a quest you put your head in the slot of the pumpkin, you then complete the quest in the same episode on camera!!!! You then take the crystal, leave your head (how do people not understand that part) and put the pumpkin into the barrel and take one shard. Of course, once you have a shard you add it to The Arch of the Champions.

Decked Out is looking amazing so far! The mobs might be spawning on the walls and falling in, since some areas don't have ceilings yet. You might want to light the ceilings up as well, so creepers don't blow up your redstone!

[@Nik-GW2]

Im so incredibly hyped about hermits actually running this. The first try were always the best 😍

[@Vigilante0923]

You should create a scroll called “Good Fortune” When your hazard bar were to get to its highest point the caves and shortcuts that would randomly close, they won’t would make it easier for the player to get away from the ravager :) hope it makes in the game

[@NateBuilder]

When Decked Out 2 is in the testing phase you should release it to the public for a demo before releasing it to the hermits! It would allow valuable play testing and it would also build hype around it's release. Audiences would then be excited for their favorite hermits to play it after playing it themselves.

[@e.millustration1759]

That ice mining timelapse was super satisfying

[@superbelo]

Not sure if it was a plan or not already; but instead of having to hide a ton of shulkers every week like you did previously, perhaps you can incorporate decked out boxes with the hermit quests? I'm sure KingRen would approve, and this way you could more easily make a bulk amount of boxes, and spend less time having to hide them, which might even allow you some time to enjoy the game yourself! You could still hide a few of course, but the main way to get them be from quests, its also a great alternative as the diamond pool begins to run out for quests.

[@awesomea6692]

Your could make the bottom 2 blocks on one of the trees powdered snow so that hermits can go into in and fall into a secret room with some loot, but if your clank get to high there are just a bunch of evokers down there.

[@ripley.74656]

This season, I've been watching all hermit videos, but I'd like to say just how excited I am to watch Etho do his runs in Decked Out - I seriously cannot wait.

Most of all, take care.

[@achyutjagadeesh8985]

Blue shell idea: Give the strongest sabotage cards exclusively from a failed run (in a section in the skill(did you rename it?) shop itself). This both offers a consolation prize to those who aren't as good (scar/not etho) and gives them more reson to stay involved. For the more experienced player it becomes a metagame decision whether to throw a run for sabotage cards?

[@thecakecraft7724]

Advice from me is start thinking of piston based contraptions, they’ll be your best friend when it comes to an “alive” feeling dungeon that shifts with each passing intruder Research stuff like double and triple piston extenders, flush and hidden red stone designs, and piston feed tapes to create seemingly impossible appearing and disappearing walls, platforms, and doors For instance, a piston extender can easily be hidden under lava, possibly to make a tall platform appear out of it. Fence gates can be placed inside a piston feed tape for a very fancy large door that can dramatically lower block by block until it shuts

Hey Tango, unsure if you read your comments. As a software engineer, something that we do is focus on always having a releasable product, even if the deliverable isn't 100% of our final image. This allows us to ship deliverables early and often, getting our products into the hands of our users way earlier than if we had waited for the final product. This further allows us to get feedback on our "v1" which helps us to learn and make redesigns that affect future versions (earlier than if we had waited for the full final product). In this case, we'd, metaphorically, be able to build, deploy, and ship a single floor of Decked Out, while building it with the final product in mind, and leaving room for refactoring and incorporating any yet-made learnings. We'd ship the first slice of the game (possibly just first floor, or a single zone with all gameplay mechanics, or the entire dungeon but without all of the mechanics implemented yet), allow players to play and enjoy it, gather their feedback, all while continuing to build the next modular piece of the game (2nd floor, etc). We continue this trend, constantly gathering feedback, making learnings, and constantly shipping deliverable value months ahead of if we had gone with the conventional plan-build-test-ship in phases of the old school style. I hope that you can incorporate this wisdom into how you build your game. I suggest breaking it into smaller, deliverable pieces, and releasing it in phases, rather than making everyone wait until the end. You'll get feedback faster, people will be able to play it sooner, and you'll make learnings that might help prevent some mistakes that you would have otherwise only seen after completion. Cheers!

[@peterchu5609]

I've had a though that perhaps there are multiple ways to different levels. Most would function as traps dragging the player upwards or downwards but could be used by a smart one to speed up their journey. Depending on Hazard some of these passages will themselves be trapped or will close up altogether. The river for instance, if you fall too deep, could drag you down one or two levels. These passages could also end in dangerous rooms to discourage use of them. The safest route would be by the default way that places you in a relatively safe room.

[@celariea.7513]

[@survivingzgamer]

Soul sand next to water makes it incredibly hard to move quickly, since soul sand isn't a full block if you walk to the edge of it, it triggers walking in water speed + soul sand speed. Maybe not for the river jump but in other places it could be an effective slowing obstacle.

[@jmnero4447]

Hey Tango, have you figured out a way to make sure the wardens and ravagers from clumping up for decked out 2? Then distribute them back to a starting area for each? Perhaps for the wardens you could have a line of noteblocks go a certain way to the warden collection area (think like the lines on the floor that helps people find their way but would be sound for the wardens to follow). Then once all are collected they get redistributed throughout the level they are a part of. Could do something similar for ravagers but just have some silenced bait villagers or something for them to get collected. I just remember you having a slight problem with ravagers in the original decked out. So hopefully you already have something planned for it or maybe my ideas help! I look forward to each new episode cause it's gonna be awesome!

[@deborahsheets2604]

I really like the ice box design...
