Yes, I am aware of how old this map is!
Now that's out of the way, let's just enjoy the map, shall we? Half-Life 2 is a lot of fun, simply put. It features the staples of atob that I love, from his elegant minimalism to his mastery of creating tiles that fully explore the game-play on offer. Nothing is wasted here; every aspect of the map has it's time in the sun. When that kind of simplicity is used properly, you end up with a map that is a great, pure experience to play. — Orion_

And the whole reason I asked was to feature it.... Oh well

WTF???

u forgot the ninja

AGD

top exit. I love how the review just makes you want to play it, without any exaggeration. Because the map really is so good.

love these open maps.

Maybe too much gold, I ended up liking the double doors. Also I like zipping through the rocket cubbies like a boss. Some cool flow to be had.

hi

=)
is my favourite bit. I was going to remove some gold from the bottom, but I like the sound it makes when you collect it all in one run. It does look a little much, I agree.

Cheers for the feature, Orion_. :)

A great deal of fun, the rockets were magnificent and the rest just pieced in perfectly. I simply disliked the double door mechinism implemented here.
4/5 (none-the-less)
Favourited
The rest is classic atob. And even back in '06 he didn't enable ratings. :<

Love the review

Map looks like a lot of fun, worried the double doors will be an issue for me when I get around to playing it, but I'll just have to wait and see.

;)

WHOLE LOTTA DOGS FUN

Very nice. The level has a classic episodic feel. Is very flowy and that floorguard is amazing. 5

+k for hl2

very entertaining.

If by 'concept' you mean an action map with gold, a ninja, some tiles, an exit and a couple of rockets... then yeh. Otherwise there's nothing remotely similar about the two

This was actually inspired by a previous map of my own which was in turn inspired by a Lucidium map.

So there.

You might

want to try actually playing it...

WTF???

u forgot the ninja

some gold

yes, maximo was in your mind. same concept as this http://numa.notdot.net/map/5874
But it's still nice. 4/5

nice and simple

Yessir.

Really fun.
And a beautiful layout and honestly, this level is terrific.
Love it.

Speed demo for the bottom switch was lots of fun.
Demo Data

Well

both mentioned are two of the biggest influences on my overall style, but this wasn't made with either in mind specifically.

And thanks.

Also, I think you missed something :d

Wonderful level

Beautiful setup with a very satisfying flow and overall gameplay.
Here's an all-gold both-switch demo. This really reminded me of stepself's level "Suction," crossed with your classic astheoceansblue style, and maybe, if I'm not mistaken, a bit of influence from maximo?
