I thought that it was a very good map although it could have had more detail on the elevator part. I liked everything else though. The gameplay of it was pretty good although I got bored of it really fast. I also got lost in the middle of it and couldn't figure out what to do once in the jail section of it. Good work otherwise.

Verdict

Good job but make a little bigger and little more effort next time.

Good job but make a little bigger and little more effort next time.

Pros
I like the confusing room with all the doors and how the antlions chased you.

Design
I didn't like that it wasn't longer.

I guess my savefile account decided to not like me.
Very well, there's a new link up now.

Overall pretty good, although some details don't fit at all. For example, the door at the very beginning has the wooden skin, whereas all of the walls are metal. Be sure to consider the surrounding parts of the map when choosing door skins.

Also, some of the sounds didn't make sense, like the headcrab sound for a door opening. And as Riven stated, the elevator should have a looping move sound.

One last thing; is it really necessary for the item crates to have that many crowbars? After all, you only need one, not 40!

Everything else was pretty good, although a bit short - I expected a longer ride than just a few hundred yards. One more thing; it's almost too easy to fall off of the tram - try making some guard rails and a short swivel door that closes when you start the tram.
