Whack a Mole! The classic game of Whack a Mole has returned, bigger and much better! A special thanks to ShadowStorrmxX for helping me test this game and also so of his friends. This game is based of the classic game Whack a Mole and everything plays nice and evenly. Scoring system is correct as everyone is at a fair advantage. The Mole(s) start down in the underground and the Farmer (Whacker of Moles) starts on top of the ground awaiting the arrival of the less, and unfortunate Moles. Farmer The Farmers Information is listed below... -Gravity Hammer (More realistic game-play of a Whacker of the Moles) -No distinct color (Choice of color by your very own spartan, no advantage) -Waypoint (Used for Moles for a better chance of survival, No camping Farmer) -Unlimited Sprint (Able to run around free, hole to hole awaiting the arrival of Moles) Overview of the upper area where Farmers spawn... The upper portion of the map is very detailed. Includes 8 holes which Moles can jump out of and a very fine Aesthetic background. As you can see the holes are inaccessible for the Farmer for better game-play and for a more fun and enjoyable game... Aesthetic features such as even placement of blocks and objects even up to the custom made Hammer Logo and Mole on the two side walls... Hammer... Mole... Now down to the Moles side of the game... Mole The Moles information is listed below... -Magnum as weapon (Every other weapon is overpowered) -Regular Evade (Fast switching of holes, but no to unfair so it IS limited) -All Moles are brown as color, last one is black (Nothing specific just choice in color) -No jumping ability unless in the Hole (Game-play is much better) Picture of the Moles spawn... A Soft Kill Zone and One Way Shield is used so that the Moles are forced out of their spawn for better game-play and more fun. Also, a safe haven enables all cheating factors such as Farmer getting into the Ground. The Farmer has no possible way of getting underground, but just in case a Safe Haven is placed so he cannot kill the Moles underground. A Custom Powerup is placed under each hole so it allows Moles to access the area above the hole. Every hole is marked with a symbol on the ground to find each hole better... Shield doors also come into play in each hole. This allows the Moles an even chance against the Farmer and cannot be killed while retrieving back into the hole. Also, the Mole cannot camp in the hole and shoot at the Farmer peeking into the hole, so the Mole is forced to jump... Another great aesthetic feature of this map is the underground portion. It is surrounded by many rocks resembling an underground dirt feel... Lastly, blocks were placed about the hole so that no one can exit the hole completely or gain access to areas they are not allowed... This map is very fun for an amount of players ranged from at least 3 to 8. For more hectic game-play 16 is the number for you. Hope you enjoy this map and gametype and I have high hopes for this so criticism is welcome!
So wait, I'm confused, when the moles (humans) pick up the custom powerups, they gain the ability to jump? What stops them from just camping the bottom?
My guess is that they would want points. I know that there was a map in Halo 3 that had the infected below, and it was very similar to this (but the gophers/moles had snipers and the humans had swords). One suggestion that I have is try to make the entire underground of rocks. If you can make it flat enough that'd look pretty amazing. I like the designs on the walls, it makes it look really nice. Are the blocks above the holes low enough so that the "farmers" can't get in?
Yes as explained in the post the Farmers have no accessibility to the bottom as the Moles do not have any to the top.
After ages of farmer's hammer suppression, the moles have united with the support of small arms fire to turn the tide of war love it! I thought the aesthetics on the walls were hilarious, nice job with that cartoon theme. The mole could use some ears however, but no worries. This suits a minigame very well. Nicely done.
Its okay, reminds me of GG and Elm3nt's whack a mole. The aesthetics on the walls are really cool though. Its just it doesn't seem like a farm to me. Really fun though. 7/10
I see what you mean, and I am sure you wouldnt have understood the Farmer part of it. You see in one of my favorite Whack a Mole maps from Halo 3 the guy was called the Farmer so I clearly just used that as a name in my post.
I have no idea how that happened but I assure you this will be on my fileshare for anyone who wants it. Also I am very sorry for thew inconvenience D:
