Minigame Map Pack 1

Minigame Map Pack 1

This is the first minigame map pack. The maps included in these will be minigames, which focus on and favor gameplay as the most important part of a map. The three maps in this map pack all have a group of players use a sniper rifle to try to stop other players from scoring points. In Duck Hunt, the ducks must try to snipe the hunt from midair; on Jenga Tower, the British use a sniper rifle to defend the tower of Jenga; and in Sniper Tundra, the snipers try to keep players from the other team from surviving inside the hill.

Duck Hunt
Created by WetBeaver

​

Quick Summary of How to Play:
Shooters get the chance to test their marksmenship as "clay pigeons" are launched in the air. There is a twist, as the "pigeons" are armed with sniper rifles, and can fire back at the shooter. The game is flexible and can accomodate any size party. Two players spawn behind gauss warthog turrets, which they must use to kill the "clay pigeons." All the other players are pigeons. If you have a large party, a few pigeons will spawn as "sitting ducks," and then have to wait a moment before getting to join in the action as a "clay pigeon."

Backstory:
Duck Hunt was an NES classic that made use of a light gun accessory to shoot ducks and clay pigeons, and was quite revolutionary in 1985. Well, times have changed, and now we can shoot pigeons with a high-powered GAUSS cannon, thanks to WetBeaver. He has made a loving tribute to the classic original in the form of a mini-game.

Jenga Tower
Created by Cosmic Rick and TurboGerbil 604

Quick Summary of How to Play:
British Soldiers try to stop Japanese Kamikaze warriors from causing them to fall from the tower of Jenga. The British soldiers are armed with sniper rifles which they can use to stop the Japanese (takes three shots, even if you get a headshot) and score a point. Japanese soldiers can drive vehicles into the tower, or attack it with a gravity hammer. Both will be suicidal, but they'll score a point for it. If a Japanese soldier kills one of the british they will score 7 points. They can use a gauss cannon from the ground to help them. The last British soldier standing is awarded three points.

Backstory:
"The year is 1784, the British have been pushed back to the coast of Sicily by the Japanese and their formidable army of Kamikaze Warriors. There they shall make their last stand at the Tower of Jenga! With their newly fashioned Long Rifles and a God given weapon of unbelievable power they must hold the tower against the ever-rising tide of the Japanese Warriors, but the Japanese have brought their own weapons, and their own tools to fight the battle, cannons, gattling guns and the will to sacrifice all for their nation they are a force to be reckoned with. The Tower of Jenga must be held at all costs."

Sniper Tundra
Created by Furious D 18

​

Quick Summary of How to Play:
Players struggle to control a hill while dodging sniper fire. One point is awarded to a team for each second of uncontested hill control, and two for each kill. A custom powerups spawns every 20 seconds, a player who nabs it will be rewarded with 150% damage reduction and immunity to headshots for 30 seconds. For those who like the "run n' gun" style of play, you can rush into the hill and try to grab some points, while the "campers" try to keep you out of it from one of the many sniper locations throughout the map.

Additional Information:
At the far edges of the maps, you can access two watchtower platforms by teleporters. Another very useful sniper point is a treetop platform, accesible by using the mancannon pointing towards the tree. Many objects merged into the geometry like this one in the tree help make the maps aesthetics great.

A unique feature worth mentioning is the Bouncing Box. It’s a crate suspended above three grav lifts. It will bounce up and down randomly, so it’s a fun little piece of cover to use. There’s no better feeling than when your enemy’s poorly timed shot hits the crate right before you take him out while it’s floating above.

There is also a ramp off the side off the side of the cliff that leads to a floating platform. A very useful platform is built from bridges and floats above the middle of the map, looking towards the hill. This spot can be accessed by a nearby mancannon, and can be used to keep off enemies off the other sniper perches.
