Map Description

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!

Don't be sad, everyone died! Why do you think the entire palace is
empty? Lep was the last sultan and brought the apocolypse upon the
palace! See? A carefully crafted narrative right under your noses!
Wowzers! :biggrin:

The first map that had me crying 'Total Sweetness' out loud. Really, it's that impressive. Large, almost overwhelming at first while still being very detailed, this map breathes athmosphere...
The lever and door tricks only add to the map, and although the map is pretty large, the landmarks make the sweetness pretty good navigatable.

It's a pity that some of the things ReNo mentioned weren't fixed before the release. Some little spots with HOM effect, some seemingly solid brushes I felt trough... you really should fix them.

But, overall, mapping at it's best!

Quality map by the way.
