Marathon
Gametype: Marathon
​

Long short story: Some weeks ago i saw a video made by Wangtime (yeah, that guy) where the Team Osiris tried to catch the Blue Team for a hour. You can see the link here.

I loved the idea, and i loved the fact they were running for a hour or so. Then i had an idea: I've never seen someone who remade that part as playable map in Halo 5. I could try to do something like that!

However, i know i'm not good when i need to copy every single detail in way to make a map (or everything in general), so i just got inspiration from the idea to "run" and "go into portals".

After 2-3 comcepts, i finally made this map, called Marathon (no, it's not a reference to Bungie's game).



The objective in Marathon is to run. You don't even need to understand where to go, because the map suggest you to go forward. However, there are two points to value:

1) The map contains obstacles. Your spartan can use all the abilities to succeed, but if you fall you may start all over again.
There are checkpoints, but not all the map permits this, so pay attention. Hint: Use Ground Pound only if necessary.




2) All the players have a Plasma pistol "Voids Tear".
You won't lose your life, but it will throw your off the track, and so are punchs and ground pounds.



The mini-game asks to complete the track 3 times. You can play it with or without teams (highly suggested the first one). The map requires to pay attention whenever is necessary.
You can complete a run in 2 minutes.



With this map i tried to replicate or at least make something related to the prometheans. So the style is close enough.
