ABOUT THE MAP PACK:

Part 1: Intro
Part 2: Deep Pit
Part 3: Kill all robots

This 3 maps are my first experience with custom maps made with the Valve Hammer. I created a basic map in the PTI puzzle creator. And used the Valve Hammer to edit the map. In Hammer I just I changed the default textures of the walls and I added some props, such as pipes etc.

I thank the players who can record a demo of your gameplay. Not only a Speedrun, but especially the first attempt of gameplay. It is very useful for me to know how the players get the map and the paths they take.

Thanks to @big_n00b for playtested tirelessly and helped me fix several bugs.

Great job! I did enjoy the maps alot even though the turrets got really annoying at times.

I recorded my blindruns of each chamber but I won't have any time to edit and upload them now. I will add them here later.

Great puzzles and looks and no major problems in my opinion.

That sure is a nice map you got there. It would be a shame if someone broke it.

My maps: Bits , Color Me Rainbow and Spank Me Skyward

Again great job on the map. Although I got thru the last chamber without going into the back room around the walkway w turrets

Spoiler

main room turrets could be zapped by judicious use of laser and placing of portals on ceiling and in office room

. Thanks for creating, I like the 3 map set.

Maps that you die before to find that an area is dangerous at times are really annoying. I'm putting several boards and danger sinaliza??od to see if I can solve this problem or at least minimize.

Thank you for playing my maps and thanks for the compliment. I'm trying to improve them visually.

I discovered a serious bug early on. That allows a player to pass without going without going through the map and without killing any turret. I'm correcting it. Thanks for playing and opinion.

Here is my blindrun finally. I was on a holiday and the internet was way too slow to upload something this length.

It's pretty long but hopefully helpful.
