4/5
Although this costume campaign is short, it's still a fun map to be played under an hour.
The Level Design... Like the wall, decorations could be improved upon further update.
I also wonder if the map make a use of info_node? So that would help the AI Traverse and find the player.
Back then, I actually don't think of any consequences or issues of joining a team. Half-Life Extended used to be something as a skin for Half-Life, turned into an Overhaul mod (Overhaul as improving or in some cases remaking certain levels from scratch, Adding some varieties to the models of monsters, Adding a new texture, ect...). From the time there was a conflict with a member about how the mod was changing directions, still remember the times where I added a elevator to the Observation Room from the Hazard Course (As a nod to Half-Life Decay), A member of the team doesn't like this due to how (If I could recall correctly, I have an issues on remembering past event) The elevator door does not make an appearance in Half-Life 1, So technically there shouldn't be any elevator door at all. I did try to argue about how that this was fine due to Half-Life: Decay but he still doesn't like it, so I had to force removing it until he left the team. Sometimes it could be hell other times it's funny.
Overtime my mapping skills had gradually improved, from just stretching a level into thinking of "what is good to add into the map". There are in times where I would get stressed over how I cannot think of new idea for the next map that I was about to make, then I need to take a day off from making a map.
Still remember where I met a dude on Discord (We sometimes chatted several times and has the talent to make C++) asked to me, If he could join the team. I asked the lead dev if he could join the team, the lead dev gave a go ahead and he was in the team in just a day. To this day he's still working on the mod, and he too worked on several mods from time to time.
I also forgot to mention that, back then I really like to offer my help to every people that I came across (because I like being helpful) One of them being Half-Life: Another Shift. I still remember how I was asked to make a Locker Room, A parking lot, and an intro sequence for Half-Life: Another Shift. This didn't really get too far tho due to how the team (Which is only three member and including myself) is just in-active Which is the sign that the mod is no longer in-active development. Hence I left. I'm actually glad that John Smokes revives the ol' Half-Life: Another Shift with a new title called Half-Life: Protocol Blue I wished the best of the best for John Smokes, so that he could finished what he had started.
At the moment, the team of HLE is trying their best to improve, polished all of the maps and patching up any possible bugs that could be found in the GoldSrc Engine so that they could at last release the "Day One" build. (They we're in no rush, since they cannot make a realistic deadline and there is no actual deadline yet.)
And according to this new replies, does that mean my Journey of Mapping is.... Crazy but Inspiring?

/\ Thanks for the feedback from The Skeleton
Yeah, I made this map on rush cause I wanted to released it very early before I kept forgetting that this exist The purpose of this one map was just playing as a Janitor. To achieve something like this, I had to put many trigger_relays and multisource. And yeah that's about it. I wanted to make some of the area half bright but, I just wanted to make the map simple and playable
That is just.... weird? And also, why do people always asking me for activating windows? Is that a some sort of running gag or they just annoyed to see the watermark?

Well i don't know why i ended up took place on "Black Mesa Research Center", well the place only focuses on a small project and the place is big, it had a parking basement for the Black Mesa SUV, it had a sewer system, and an office
Black Mesa Research Center is a building type look like an Office Building
that is some good review
4/5

Sorry for a late reply tho.
It's supposed to be " Anyhow i can't get the 'Scanning Light' to appear and disappear"
I will edit the description
Texturing — 9
Ambience — 7
Lighting — 6
Gameplay — 8
I like it
But really, a lame ending after rescuing barney from the HECU Soldier
I'm not sure that i been like this since... 2018, i think
And also, why do people always asking me for activating windows?

Keep up the good work bro
