Database Entry[]
LUXOR HIGH WELLNESS SPA
The avant-garde exterior of Luxor High Wellness Spa brings to mind the monumental feats of the ancient world such as the now-demolished Temple of Hatshepsut and the mysterious ziggurats of Mesopotamia. It was designed by prominent architect Dionizy Haponik (born 09-11-2021 in Warsaw, Poland) who was known to draw heavy inspiration from sacral architecture. Unfinished since the 2050s, the building was to become a modern temple for beauty and spiritual bliss, where wealthy Pacifica residents and visitors could indulge in expensive rituals to prolong their lives. Never mind the fact their synthetic skin, titanium bones and genetically boosted metabolisms were already doing a solid job of that. This place was designed to be the very definition of luxury – prohibitively expensive and wholly unnecessary.

Behind the Scenes[]
For the planned mini-boss fight here, I knew that I wanted to provide an open space that would allow for different approaches, including stealth, and would make it possible to circle around enemies in combat. At the same time, I wanted to use a unique theme that would allow me to shape the space believably and create a setting that is interesting in its own right. Together with Piotr Ruszkiewicz, the Environment Artist for this area, we decided on a luxurious pool complex, allowing me to use empty pool basins, rock decorations, and jacuzzi bathtubs to create stealth paths and combat spaces. Once Dogtown was taken over by Kurt Hansen, construction in the district stopped, so Luxor Heights was never fully built. I decided to use abandoned scaffoldings to provide verticality, including higher-located paths with a better overview of the hall. The theme the location was built around resulted in interesting ideas for the mini-boss fight, with the use of water and electricity providing a twist to the encounter. Ayo Zarin, the enemy group leader, has implants that allow her to use electricity to regenerate — in the second half of the fight, she retreats to the water-filled pool and uses electricity to create a more hazardous battle for the player.
