A sort of factories/warehouse mish-mash (yeah I know doesnt sound original) but I've tried to go for a much more dark and gritty vibe (parts of the map were originally influenced by some scenes from the FEAR demo). My main aim behind this map was to actually re-discover some of the fun I used to get from making maps (but more of that later)

Anyways please let me know your thoughts, even if its just on what you see in the photos (you will be missing out some of the detail though). Im keen to push myself with this map because I've felt I've sold myself short with my last few releases.

Not worthy of the name in all honesty, you've plucked out a really good name and you have a standard HL2DM level. I think the name apocalyptica should be reserved for something a tad more sinister and visually astounding.

Looks good, albeit rather cliche as far as theme is concerned. The lighting in the first shot in particular does lend it a rather foreboding and ominous vibe, but I think you should be less subtle about the gruesome influences with a name like that <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">
