KotH Frost Moon RC5 WS

[Midlou]

Frost Moon - King of the Hill - Frost Moon

Merasmus' fridge full of cursed raccoons decided to get revenge on the mercs by summoning a freezing blizzard over the land through the moon! Use the old Ice Tower to put the cursed moon back in its place (and probably take out a few astronauts in the process).

Frostmoon is a halloween version of Ice Tower.

Hey guys! I have something to ask... If you have any feedback on Frostmoon, please share it here in the forum comments... I love the concept of the map, but I don't think it achieved the level of quality it deserves... Unfortunately I can't bring it back to beta, so I'll release RC for now. Or maybe I can? Experts on name convetion can help me on that.

Any feedback is useful and will help me a lot!

Pre RC5

Releasing Pre RC5 for testing before declaring RC5 ready:

• Updated map to use the last version of Ice Tower.
  • Revamp of artpass.
  • Layout revision.
  • Added jump pad.
• Revamp of underworld (now it's moonworld).
• Removed spell spam. Now you can only get spells in the moonworld.
• Added more snow.
• Updated lighting to accommodate the nighttime setting.
• Reduced capture time by 2 seconds.
• Reworked magic bridge.
• Moved some pickups around some more.

Frost Moon is becoming a more grounded Halloween map, with no pumpkin bombs and with a reduced amount of spells you can obtain.

Pre2 RC5

I'm very aware of the issues with the map being considered not 'halloween-y' enough, and to be honest I don't have the will and energy to fix that, I just want to finish RC5 and move on.

• Added quick heal after entering moonworld.
• Raised magic bridge to the high ground of the dam.
• Extended time of speed condition after entering moonworld.
• Removed containers of the mid rail track to allow better view of magic bridge.
• Fixed inconsistencies between BLUE and RED sides.
• Fixed missing menu photos.
