Deathrun_Bandicoot is a map based on the popular platform game Crash Bandicoot! This particular map is set in arctica, and the players will have to face a tough harsh and slippery environment, accompanied by TNT and Nitro Boxes, as well as devious traps!
The map also comes with music and sound effects imported straight from the Crash Bandicoot games, and it has been tested to work well!
Types of crates in map: TNT - When touched explodes after 3 seconds. Nitro - Explodes when player goes close by (doesn't have to touch). Mask Crate - Bounces around the place, can be used to access higher areas. Up Crate - A crate with an up mark, launches the player in the air when he jumps on it. Exclamation Crate - When touched, reveals previously hidden crates! Question mark Crate - Contains weapony goodness! Armoured Crate - Only revealed when Exclamation Crate touched.
The map also has a slightly hidden Metal question mark block that takes the player to a hidden bonus level, at the end of which the player will find better weapons and armour!
Players: 32 Max - 31 CT Spawns and 3 Terror Spawns. Difficulty: Easy (Medium with traps). Distance: Medium
Performance good in all areas, average of 300 w_poly everywhere.
Credits: Ambience & Music converted by Skals, ripped from original Crash Games. Environment textures by Skals and ceLoFaN, water textures by Skals. Box textures by FireWavezZ, imported into GoldSource by Skals.
Version1.1: In one area water did not kill players; fixed. The crates with exclamation were affected by use button once plugin as they were funcbuttons, so they are instead triggermultiples now.

The map takes place in Havana where the
player has to jump and run across several
ledges, platforms and rooftops within the map to
eventually reach the teleporter that will
lead them above the map where the terrorist
is.

All the shortcuts in the map are intentional,
there are a few longjumps you can do to
skip small portions of the map to make your
run quicker, but it's up to you weather you
take the risk or not.

Technical information:
Does not conflict with any deathrun plugins, Allows up to 32 players (spawns are spread, no one will die upon spawning). Has 23 traps for terrorist to use, there are no traps that halt the players progress for a long time like in some bad deathrun maps. To be able to finish the map you need to know how to LJ, Bhop is not necessary but can be done in several areas.

New deathrun map created by Skals in a couple of weeks, 1000WPOLY MAX, 1040EPOLY solo. Tested on server with deathrun plugin and 32 people, works well. Good visuals and no lag :) (unless your computer is bad). .WAD files included in .BSP file.
