After a little more than a year and in total 40 iterations, cp_snakewater is finally ready for a final release. It's been a long process from the first pre-alpha, and I can't thank everybody who's been helping me out enough. Hopefully you'll enjoy this map in the upcoming Wireplay and ETF2L seasons, and keep providing feedback so maybe them ap can be further improved in the future.
