Lovely small mission with suprisingly large areas outside the main location.

I had really some difficulties finding the

Button in the fireplace.

Seems like I am totally out of shape in looking all the nooks and crannies nowadays.

Thank you for making this mission, I had a lot of fun playing it. I personally like these small gems more than the larger ones.

TBH, I played quite a few large missions lately which lacked the details of the smaller or medium szied missions (in TDM and Thief 1/2 fan missions).

I'm really more for quality (detail) than size.

Yes, what you said.

Also, for me, I have good sneaking stamina for approximately 1 h. After that I run out of energy and get sloppy, and I start making mistakes.

Therefore this kind of max 1 h sneaking mission is perfect for me.

Yea, me too. If a mission drags on for too long I start getting bored and burning out. I need to have a somewhat frequent sense that I'm getting somewhere and achieving something. 

I also get overwhelmed when large missions have too many little things to do and too many paths to choose from. I tend to keep a mental note every time I find a fork on the road, to come back later and try the other path, so if there's too many forks my brain explodes...

What drove me to make a small mission was more of a need to keep it small for a first mission, but I don't intend to make any future missions much bigger. Or at least not larger than necessary. As @chakkmanmentioned, small missions are easier to enrich with interesting details.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
