Description
I think i got the flavor down. This is stupid heavily exaggerated if you cant tell. Based on the reconstructions of Knossos. See the trick is not to use things the minoans wouldnt. Like pretend they have crazy manpower and resources to do whatever they want with. No arches, no engineering fallacies, just bigger and fancier.Related content

This whole complex gives me Prince Of Persia: Warrior Within vibes to be honest. In both cases there are complex, mastodontic, towering structures that seem to have no logical layout regarding where corridors and staircases lead, it doesn't look like a one-structure but rather a citadel of many buildings on different levels joined together with ramparts, steps/stairs, walkways and hallways.
Great job as usual, would love to see such a palace complex in a 1st/3rd person game for me to explore.

lol Prince of Persia was exactly what I was going for. I was writing a GDD and listening to the soundtrack on loop and everything. Awesome
Thanks!

I'm sure such a wonder would pull people from all around the world, Knossos already does that haha
Thanks!

But in reality we only have a vague idea what the finishing touches of many ancient structures actually were, so what you have done may not have so far off. Thinking of the example of Troy in particular, with it's many city layers and variations. It wasn't so long ago Troy of the Iliad was thought to be a small place, and now it has been found to be quite a bit larger.

Troy is an interesting case, with many cities being built on each other. I suppose my speculative archeology could hit a few accurate marks, I was more focusing on the size of it all, and the patterning.
Patterning is fun
