Enjoy one of my favorite missions !


Hello again, This time i´ve made a mission that was influenced by the city and zone where i live, Porto,
a city that during the summer time gave me a will to create a mission, in wich i wanted to transmit the feeling
i have during this season of the year in my zone, an old zone, or better saying the centre of Porto, a place of old and colorless
buildings, covered by a cold and austere architecture shapes, facades and design, and when the sun shines i can feel this constrast
between purity of the sun with the blue sky and the sad and melancholyc atmosphere and dying aesthetic that the city of Porto present.
I don´t want to show a negative side of Porto, i just want to show a strong feature of my city, something that makes it different from the rest of the world.
Porto has still many beautifull places for turists to visit, but mostly it consists in grey areas like i show in my mission. It was not easy to reproduce in this
mission exactly how some of the old areas of Porto is, but at least i´ve managed to transmit the idead how the buldings, the atmosphere and kind of places
Porto offers. This is not a typical thief mission, with this fm i wanted more to bee apreciated like something that is exibited in a gallery, like a photo, a painting, sculptures
and so on. Don´t worry there is gameplay, however my main intention was to use Dromed as an Art expression, and today many artists express their arts in so many ways.
I hope you like this mission, sit back , relax, have a glass of Porto wine and some gressinos.

Very visual mission! I really enjoyed looking at all the arcitecture. I was able to do everything except find the secret area in the second mission..lol Looking forward to your next mission.

OMG....Pedro,what was behind the name of Prof Quim,

Thats an english word for Vagina...hey is Belmiro the male equivalentor is it all a freudian slip?

I liked the FM,it had a wonderous sunny feel,but would have liked a little interaction with characters,and it made me feel a little alone and lonely..I found the music just made me rush around looking for loot as there was not much else to do...but I am not meaning to be negative,I had a blast

[caropr]

I'm kind of stuck Ohh the shame

Can't find the professors place.

Love the architecture....you very good at this I must say. The loothunting is fun as well. Okay, onto mission 2, wonder if a few of these gang guys show up

[smithpd]

Thanks, Cardia1. I enjoyed wandering around in Porto. Your architecture and textures are great. From the pictures on the wall, which I presume were also of Porto, I think you captured the atmosphere very nicely. Did some of your textures come from photographs of Porto?

As for the loot, that was a challenge in Expert. I made the objective in Part 1 but failed to find all of it. In part 2, I fell 5 short of the objective. Argh!

[Azaran]

The solar effects are brilliant. Great job

[Iceblade]

A looting hint true for Cardia1 missions (especially for both of these fms) each room will have some piece of loot in it - and a bigger hint - look for coins in the bathrooms and kitchens of the apartments and each classroom and bathroom at the school

[Lady Taffer]

Aunt Matilde!!

I love what you did with her voice, Cardia. And there I was expecting some awful rat creature to come out and get me---ingenius!

[Independent Thief]

Loot is tough to find, but the mission is beautiful!
