Behind the scenes[ | ]

  • The devs added the interior after noticing that players consistently tried to enter the mill in the beta, drawn by its unique architecture and moving flaps.
  • This area contains developer commentary.
The Dyrford mill was a late addition to the Dyrford Village. For a while the mill was just a landmark in the exterior - a piece of scenery, but not a place you could enter. However, once we began QA on the project, one of the first things we noticed [was] that literally everyone tried to enter this building. We learned quickly that the sort of things attracted player's attentions, one of which was a great big water mill that dynamically moves in the scene. As soon as we realised this, we decided to include the interior to this building, another place for the player to explore and find things hidden around the village. This is where we learned that adding dynamic objects to the scene was a surefire way to grab the player's attention.
