pl_cavecrossing - Pushink bomb thru a large cave, passing elevators and blowing up a rocket

My latest released map. It has serious gameplay problems. Such as being WAY TOO LARGE. But I like the underlying ideas.

Ideas I like include the elevators, the U shape of the map and of course the cave. But the cave is a major cause of my worries. I don't know what to do with it. It's large, mainly due to the elevators needing vertical space. I like the multiple levels, but they are too high up. All the ramps all over the place doesn't feel right either.

You should add some screenshots or else probably nobody will download your map.

Then maybe, not to be harsh, don't release it. If you aren't happy with it, don't release it. Good rule of thumb.

I'm not sure it's too necessary to watch the video, the summary is that: yes the map is overscaled, it's difficult to give feedback on sightlines and heights when the map is overscaled by default - if you remade the map from an overhead layout with a new scale in mind (I mention trying to learn the distance of stickybomb arcs to familiarise yourself with regular-in-game-distances) it would probably get rid of a lot of worries, the elevator was cool and it itself was probably an okay scale.

I swear I saw this map aaaaages ago. Like, 2014. Why have you only just made a thread now? :v

Random strike of project focus. I don't expect it to last long enough for me to remake the map.
