Welcome to Microcontest 8: Thinking Inside the Box
Psst, hey! Attached is a .vmf that contains a 4096 x 4096 x 2048 cage made of skip brushes. Your job is to make a map that fits entirely inside that space. Everything, including skybox brushes, must fit in the box! You can do any mode, but only maps that can run on our 24 player servers will be tested today. Please note this is smaller than most arena maps, so choose your gamemode wisely!
To enter, reply to this thread claiming a spot. After the deadline, edit your map into your post to finalize your submission. You should only ever have one post in this thread until after submissions close!
For full Microcontest rules and submission procedure, check out the Microcontest Megathread.
Quick Info:
Time commitment: 3-4 Hours
Difficulty: 2/5
Date: October 17th, 2020
Planning starts: 11:00 AM EDT (15:00 UTC)
Clock starts: 12:00 PM EDT (16:00 UTC)
Clock ends: 3:00 PM EDT (19:00 UTC)
Countdown to the deadline here!
Notes:
Name your .vmf:
<gamemode>_<yourname>_mc8_a1
You'll notice that any gamemode is allowed this time, including non-standard ones! MvM and MvM-based modes will be tested separately if we get any, and any non-standard modes will be looked at but not played. Sorry, I don't know how to surf or set up a deathrun server!
You do not have to compile within the time limit, but I will only wait one hour past the deadline to collect maps at a maximum. After that your map will no longer be considered a valid entry, unless you contact me ahead of time.
Good luck!
