This was my first release in a 10 year period that had been plagued by unfinished larger projects and time away from mapping due to work and other life commitments. Once I found myself having time again I came back to attempt to finish Time to Belong but missed the thrill of actually getting something out there for people to play, so when a DM4-themed map jam was announced, I jumped right on it.

One thing I've come to realise is that I work better when I have some source material; I find it much more satisfying remaking or repurposing an old map layout than coming up with a new one from scratch. In this case I took three old maps from the same author: tfl, tfl2 and tfl3 and selected a key area from each one to recreate and merge into a single layout. It was a fun exercise and probably the most time-efficient mapping I've ever done, with some space for creativity too (the tall atrium with lava and glass was an original addition).
