Way to go, Brush$troke! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3131713950

Extra

So this is the first time we're adding an "Extra" category to Community Picks because in this category we'll put stuff that's not necessarily a community room, but some creators are making content that helps other builders make community rooms even better.

LUA scripts

GG3L is rocking the Escape Simulator scene by taking the Room Editor to the next level with LUA scripts. Ever heard of LUA? It's a cool coding language that spices up games with extra stuff. Escape Simulator didn't have stairs due to its square room design, but GG3L said "no problem" and used LUA to add stairs, elevators, and slopes. It's a great example of how modding can totally transform a game, giving it a fresh twist beyond what was originally planned. Big props to GG3L for their awesome work!

The official Escape Simulator Wiki

Great news for all Escape Simulator Builders! We've launched an official ES Wiki to enhance your room editor experience. It's packed with everything you need to know about the game and in-depth guidance for the Room Editor. Just a heads-up, it's still in Beta, so you might encounter a few incomplete sections here and there. Find it here https://docs.escapesimulator.com/ If you would like to become a part of our community and reach out to some of the amazing builders featured here, then be sure to join us on our official Discord or come talk to us on our subreddit.
