This is my first map ever, and will be very crappy in the beginning. I plan to create something functional and find out if it is fun, and then make it pretty. The basic Idea is Cell-block type rooms around the perimiter (players spawn in these). Each room will have different types of projectiles for the gravity gun. There will be a pit-like arena in the main middle portion of the map. One challenge will be designing the map so that the cell-block & hallway areas are fun too.

Update: I got online with it and had some fun. Unfortunately my machine lags everyone out pretty bad once I get more than 5 people on the server

Note: Screen2 is newer than the version available for download. I started from scratch and the version I'm working on isn't playable yet.

This map will be in a large, fenced off area, outside, with plenty of rubble, broken stuff and other things.

There will also be an underground section, that is the cliche'd "bunker type thing", but with tables, TABLES I TELL YOU!!!!.....and maybe a TV.

Topside will look like an area of countryside that has just been shelled half to death, then fenced off for little or no reason.

This map will include a large building, full of parked lorries, and lots of guards.

RELEASED AUGUST 2004. People's Choice of 2004 Snarkpit Competition.
To install: open "persia" in the .zip, and extract the 5 or 6 folders into "valve". I don't know why it's even in "persia", I'm stupid.

When I played Prince of Persia, what really stuck out for me was the level design. All of it was very seamless and connected - you had a genuine feeling of where you were going throughout the palace and it all seemed like one place. Flash forward a few months. I slave away at the last second and barely pump out a map for the competition. I'm such an idiot!

RELEASED JULY 2004.
A CS_ map created under 2.5 hours, including conception, construction, and compile time. Built to practice "speed-mapping", and the ability to quickly create and implement ideas under a time-limit.

RELEASED APRIL 2004.
Explore a revamped Black Mesa, blasting aliens and military alike. A mysterious being seems to be communicating with you, through sarcastic text messages. What are his true intentions? Beware, for nothing is as it seems. Will you survive? Will you leave... A legacy?

Coming soon

This is a hostage rescue map that I have created from scratch. I believe it to be one of the nicest custom maps available right now. Please visit my link for more info, screenshots, and the download.

Small to medium sized Zombie Panic map. It features an abandoned, old industrial part of a town. I've tried to reflect the moody and creepy atmosphere of the mod.

This ut2004 teamplay level is set outside high up in the mountains.
It combines grassy organic areas, with sci-fi tunnels, jumppads, and doorways.
The dome shaped teambase (seen in screenshots) is situated over a huge drop, and only reachable by jumppads.
The teambase is made from about 6 meshes imported from maya.
These meshes are copied and rotated several times to complete the finished building.

The release of HL2 means i'll probably not get around to finishing this level for a while, -So im posting screenshots of it instead.

A tiny map for 2 players, fast action and pretty fun. Im new to hammer so im still learning.
