What happens when I get bored?

Post by Power-Mad »

When I get bored, I make another test map! Normally, I keep test maps to myself, but this one I felt worth pointing out:

That is a constantly moving truck! Actually, teh floor just moves below it, but it looks a LOT like a constantly moving truck. I plan to add little details later, some cars to drive up next ot it and shoot at it, so I can release it as a full map.

Oh and here's a picture of breen about to get hit:

I also have the spy hunter music on loop, just because it was my inspiration (No, my inspiration was NOT matrix)

Simplicity should never be underestimated! That's often what shows up to be the best thing in the end. :D

This started it's life as a test map, I'm eventually going to add enemies and props and a 3d skybox so it can become a big map. Maybe I'll use a few of my other test maps in here, could be helpful.

Was this the way Valve made Half-Life 2? *sarcasm*
I guess you get a lot of detailed and good-looking brush entities for your map this way. :D Well, the only thing that matters when you make maps is that the final result is good. ;)
