Game Types: DM, Rambo, Point, Team, CTF, INF
Jet Level: Normal
Waypointed: No

My second attempt at a map! I'm happy with how this came out...thought it'd make a nice not-so-little map. Spacious for DM, plenty of hiding spots for CTF, and a bit of a tricky obstacle challenge for INF.

I (ATTEMPTED) shading the map, but compaired to you more experienced map-makers it's obviously not going to be all that great...but I tried.

It's not waypointed, but if you put in enough bots (I used 7), they'll spawn close enough to each other to start fighting anyway, so it makes for some fun still. If anyone wants to waypoint it, as I'm no good at it, feel free.

I take no credit for the sceneries used EXCEPT for the water, which really I only took a picture of actual water and manipulated it on Photoshop. I wanted to try something new with that one :)

Hope you all enjoy!

It might be fun in DM, although the layout is kinda linear. It doesnt suit CTF for it has just 1 entrance to the other side + the up & down advantage problem. It might work for INF, although there goes the entrance problem again. Also I miss a few more colors. The sceneries look ok, but the coloring doesnt fit the rest of the map.

-> Sub-mediocre attempt, keep trying. I know you can do better :)
