View Full Version : [m] - Map Project: "Shark"

I'm working on a new map right now, code-named: "Shark"

Inspired by the real life game of tag called "Shark" (or "Lava" in some cases), I brought the idea to ZombieMurder. With players such as Whisper, raven, and Spork (and a few others that I don't have time to name (lol(rofl triple nesting))), we played Shark against the zombies on various maps.

Godds killer field, cbble, and whatever maps there are that lets you run from pillars to pillars.

I've decided to create a map specifically for dodging zombies and running from pillars to pillars.

Again, this map is code-named "Shark". The way to play this map would almost be like playing the Escape server but different in a sense. You'll ALWAYS be kept on the move so you don't have to wait and hold your ground with other players. There is "some" cooperation but most of the time, you wouldn't want to be staying in one spot for too long anyways.

Once I get pictures of this map up, you'll see soon enough why playing "Shark" will require more than the ability to camp.

Use those legs. :fight:

[m]Note

Well, I finished this map in like 2-3 days. Here's the description on FPS Banana.

"A defensive ZM map with very little barricading.

You start out running for the glass gates until someone becomes infected. Then you must destroy the glass panels to prevent the zombies from getting to you while trying to flee pass the last glass gate. The final 2 rooms have places you can dodge the zombies from.

A few secrets can help you dodge the zombies but there's also counter-secrets to hiding spots."

This map is finished.

Obviously, the time spent on this map is short but the ideas are great. Hopefully this map will be the stepping stone for me to emerge as a map maker.

I had more ideas but those ideas I want to save for future map projects, should I ever feel like making one.

i just ran around the map its very VERY well put together i like how the best spots are in the back but you have to run through each room to get there its a nice size map with good spots and seems very evenly put together fun for both zombs and humans. good work mnote :D

From what yah said it will be sweet but the last thing you gotta do is add it and test it out. Usually the simplest maps are the best.

Well tbh, I ain't gonna add it, while the idea is good, the finished look isn't. Mnote, remove the white, add some proper textures, make it look nice and some nice lighting, then i'll add it.
