About

The map is a normal looking house map.

You can choose to fight on the ground outside and inside of the house. You can also use some of the house roofs to get around. The gameplay is fast and you can?t get lost if you tried. The house is a very good size for 1 VS 1 or even a team match (theres 32 well placed player spawns).

There?s many escape routes in the map doors, vents, windows and teleporters. The weapon and items layout is well balanced so the players has to move round to collect them instead of staying in one area.

There are 3 traps in the map one is in the super charger room (a spike trap) and the other is a pool trap, the 3rd trap you can find. The traps are for greedy players that like to always have max suit, looking at the trap will make them think twice about going in.

The lighting map took along time to get just right. Most of the textures and models are custom. Some of the hl2 textures (like plaster) I have improved with grain detail like used in ep2, also a nice render on wood floor, tiles and white wall.

There are some other small details in the map like playable radio, moving fish, swimming pool, toilet flush etc... that gives a nice house fill to the map. There are also some small easter eggs/secrets in the map, again does not change gameplay but giving the player a house fill and more fun to the map.

About:

The map has 8 hallways 4 on the lower level, and 4 on the upper level. On the lower level there are 2 stair ways to get to the 2nd level also 4 lifts and 4 ladders. The main area is the middle lobby this is a nice and open area. The weapon layout has been well thought about and the gameplay is fast. The lighting took along time to get just right.

Updates for final release:

Added Sun
New lighting effects
Improved lighting
Improved dust particles
New water texture
Added more detail to ceiling texture

New green tile texture under water fountain
