A map based on simple flings. I have not really worked on keeping the map clean, so if you decompile, your eyes WILL burn. We accept no responsibility for loss of eyes.

I cannot get any good screenshots due to lack of a printscreen button, so i would appreciate you take some

Nice little map. I love to fling so this was fun. Kinda simple and easy but a good start. And yes - I still have my eyes. Thanks for posting. Keep them coming.

Nice map. Very good for learning all of the fling tricks. I almost got stuck in the fling shaft, there is very little maneuvering space to break free from that prison.

Nicely done! Not really difficult, but flings are always fun to perform. Also first time I've seen that video used on the entry elevator. Doors are backwards though :lol:

Nice compact simple fling based map. Everything worked fine for me - well done. I look forward to more. Thanks for creating.

One bug, you don't need the excursion funnel. If you fling yourself at the right speed an height, you can bounce off the railing off the 2nd catwalk and go straight to the end.

I'm playing custom maps and record my first time of playing them. So the run is not perfect and may not use only intended ways, but maybe it can let you see how other people may understand the map or you could just enjoy someone playing this map for entertainment.
Anyways, here is the recording:

Nice and simple, though i'd be interested in some really elaborate, megahard fling map where you take off and dont touch the ground for a good 60 seconds lol
