After some of my recent maps grew way out of proportions, I tried to do something smaller, something simpler this time. A HL2DM map that just works. There's plenty of vertical movement with balconies and rooftops to jump around. Some tight close-quarter fights as well as larger and more free areas for quicker movement. Once you found the RPG, watch out for a sparking power-box, shooting it will electrocute anyone standing on the little white roof.

I made a singleplayer version of this map! You can find it here.

Beta1 is out!

Changes in this version:

• many, many minor fixes
• removed the corridor that leads to the ladder (it's now outside)
• finally did the proper texturing
• refined brushwork at places
• changed a few stairs and catwalks
• added a few more connections
• opened up the mall/underground area
• tuned the RPG trap
• added: numerous light fixtures - and lights!
• added: physics props for better gravegun fights

The map is set in the slums and abandoned industrial areas of a kilometer-high, futuristic city. Corrugated sheet iron and concrete. Some parts stand underwater. Sunlight falls in small chasms but mostly stays a glow in the distance. HDR, mmmm.

The map is set in the backyard of an Eastern European residential building. Lots of physics and things to do! Including a working pulley-elevator (use the suitcase!) and a refridgerator on a rope!

Layout is split into different height levels as I recently had a favour for vertical gameplay. To use the pulley-elevator grap one of those super-heavy suitcases and drop it on the outer platform while standing on the other. Gravity will pull you up!
