Designing For is a series which looks at a level in gaming, and analyzes a theme central to that level's design. In this episode, we look at the titular level from Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, a brutal gauntlet of a level that tests something not usually well respected these days -- a player's endurance.
