You are not suppose to be here - level bored

[beautifulsurvivor21]

So did anyone else find the rock in the games with the glowing words you are not suppose to be here - level bored, and if so what is this doing here.

Found this today as well - it's an easter egg saluting or as an homage to Richard "Levelord" Gray - who was a video game celebrity of some repute in the late 90s / early 2000s. Other then being the designer behind some famous game levels, a signature of his was easter eggs like this one.

If you keep exploring you'll find more easter eggs on Gemea.

But you won't know they're easter eggs. That giant blue jellyfish is meant to be an easter egg, but if you don't know what game it's from it's just something to look at.

Then, how about the mysterious portal at the Numino Peak?

[Pesky]

Exactly. To me it's just a yellow swirly thing I tried jumping into. But someone else is going to to post "It's an easter egg bbecause it looks just like a portal from <game>."

Yep, found the "level bored" message as well as the green swirly portal (tried to jump into it too :D) Also loved to find the crashed UFO btw. :)

As for the "level bored", since this is the "signature" below the actual message, could it be a mistake? I'd rather expect something like "level designer" instead. Or did Richard "Levelord" Gray actually ever signed hidden messages with "level bored"?

For those who haven't found it, the crashed UFO exists and is not just Eve's joke. You can find it on the cliffs in The Grassland, just south of the Sage Stone.

Edit because my directions were rubbish. UFO is here:
Imagine a line between the Sage Stone in Sunderwind Wilds and South Field Farm to the south east. Around 40% way along that line you would fall off a cliff. Instead of that, backtrack a little, then climb as high as you can on the rock to your right (west).

Thanks it’s nice to learn new things everyday.
