Don't worry, now that our mappers have been forced to play in that movement constraining monstrosity, they will know what to improve. BTW Neophyte did make that in 30 minutes however. So props to him for his quick work. However, this kind of gameplay isn't fun in confined spaces and low cielings. Gasworks.bsp was more suitable, despite its notable lack of pits.

Well playtesting was a blast. So was the initial irc gambit. Things went well and this seems to be heading somewhere. Two maps are on the way I believe. Overall, it was a fun 5 hour mod. Join the irc channel for some fun.
I already gave you links to the site, mod and map files that I host. Go easy on it though, I don't think comcast is very friendly with its bandwidth.
*EDIT*
Second map, made and released.

The last playtest, (still going on now perhaps) was great. Aboojumsnark's new map is so the win. This mod is more fun than it was as a joke. I'm hoping more happens. I will definetly keep hosting anything that needs to be hosted.
Anyway, keep up the good work. I'm out for the night. Hopefully. I really should sleep. <i>Really.</i>
BTW: Chrono, the gun's don't kill people. That was the first thing sniper coded in. Just massive knockback.

Make box map, with giant Pit in the center of the room. Add all kinds of nasty spikey things on the bottom and side of the pit walls. All player_starts must be on either end of the box map. Add a Trigger_hurt somewhere in the pit.
compile.
test the map by jumping down the pit. if you die, a JOB WELL DONE SIR.

Aboojumsnark is hosting.
edit: nm just spotted it above... wonder why I couldn't connect to gamesurge before...
i got a few ideas
1) decoy pits must be included
2) make it so the guns dont kill make it so the guns push people away (whats the point of dying by the pit if you can just get shot? no fun in that)
3) i wanna play the hl1 prototype
