Now then, how was the player supposed to figure out that rectangular gold thing with the four semispheres? Were there clues I missed?
I love the 'top 80%!' bit, by the way!
It's pretty nondescript but that specific piece was from a pretty famous Avar horde uncovered in Albania. There's a sizeable collection at the Met with things that look similar. Keep an eye out for the rivets and rectangular gold sheets like that, they're belthook designs for nomadic riders!
hey did it break? We've been enjoying it every days since it appeared on HN but the map isn't loading today :((
Was there something in particular that inspired you to make it?
I collect artifacts/coins as a hobby, and I often come across things that are undocumented/unattributed. Saw the Met had an open access program and wanted to recreate that feeling with more artifacts:)
