My competition entry, assuming Valve isn't already making a Canals map that will cripple my own dismal efforts. Many people might object to following the Half-Life 2 theme too closely, but I personally found it challenging and rather interesting. Besides, imitation is the highest form of flattery, eh? In regards to the beta, I'm not entirely happy nor disappointed with the current version. Yes, it's rather bloated. Yes, there's bugs. Maybe I'll make it into a single player map?...

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!
