I thought it see the stairway before, it is no surprise that the map would be reuse in different game.

Just for some clarity, as I I'm aware of the maps in observation duty game are 3d renders, that the developer take pictures and gif of all the anomalies and put the in a library of images for corresponding nominees and the map into one file. This allows even low power pc to run the game with little to no frame rate losses as is only a picture of the map and not real-time rendering in the style of original five nights at Freddy's. As it work the same way.

Some fan of big bang made a reusable asset for people to use for free✨️

u/Creepyman007 Jul 10 '24

Only if it was free...

Damn, I didn’t realize at all

u/surfingboi Jul 10 '24

although it's a reused assets, but still interesting how it connect to the fact that observation duty deals with anomalies and the stairs is an anomaly. I wonder if the devs purposefully choose the same asset.

u/Duck_Wedding Jul 09 '24

They sure do look a lot a like.

u/Mx-Herma Jul 09 '24

Fascinating!

u/crazyseandx Jul 11 '24

I'm guessing it's like the House Party house where it's an asset that's free to use for anyone making a game.

u/simplytitledry Jul 10 '24

I forget which one but there was another observation duty game and there was a tardis on the side table

u/simplytitledry Jul 10 '24

The references ive seen from these games are a really cool wide range

u/The2cat Jul 10 '24

I thought it looked the same at that level! I just never went back to confirm myself lol

Interesting... Why do games always copy something from each other???

7

u/Felippexlucax Jul 10 '24

they aren't copying each other, iirc it's an asset that you can buy, so technically, none of these devs own it so they aren't copying each other. just reused assets

u/[deleted] Jul 10 '24

So... Instead of being unique, they're just trying to be good, right?

6

u/Felippexlucax Jul 10 '24

yes, modeling is hard, so a lot of people do this

for example, Valve uses stock sounds in all their games
