CTF 300K GOMP

CTF 300K GOMP

UT CTF - Large, 8-16 players. Strange Alien world enclave. Released November 2007.

This map was created for Blito3's 300k Contest, 2007 edition! This contest differed from the 2006 compo in that it was CTF only, and you map had to keep the brushes in the released map.

This meant lower detail in general, which imo was too bad, since brushes take up quite few K (relatively) in a 300k map, than in a larger map, and that makes a big difference in the looks of the map. Oh well, I only made one map this time.

For all it's simplicity, GOMP took a while to make - mostly the texturing and lighting - cool looking map though, imo. Game play is a bit simplistic as well, but it's a big map and you have a few route options as a flag carrier, and it's not exactly a cake-walk between the flags when you use bots on the higher settings.

A few bot-bugs in the map, but no real show stoppers. GOMP is a weird but visually interesting map, and turned out to be fairly popular, having a surprising large number of downloads for a 300k map! I may revisit this theme idea sometime in the future, dunno.

Music is Enigma from the game Unreal Tournament.
