    Haaha

    Greetings, my name is Twitch, I would explain more about myself as this is my first thread, but I am afraid to say that this is Shadow's map, not mine. I just thought it would be nice to post it as he has no plans to. Also, I fear that going into detail on a thread would bring too much controversy. If you wish to speak with me personally, I would be happy to exchange private messages with you.

    On to the game.

    It is called Haaha, as it was made for the AI Joker. It starts out in a single room with two teleporters. It is on from there, I do not wish to spoil any of the stages as it would result in an easier run through for those who try this map.

    The whole map's setting is completely isolated from the sights of the rest of the map. Everything is cleanly merged so that the player has no idea where they are inside of Foundry. This is to create a new enviornment for the player, so they are playing the map Haaha and not a puzzle map called Haaha on Foundry. It is only once that the rest of the map is revealed, in this case there is a large semi circular room without a ceiling. However, it is irrelevent, as the game is not affected at that point, where it is not possible to escape.

    The gametype is called Hostage, and it is only to remove grenades from the players, to keep two of the stages challenging. There is no flag to be moved or territory to capture, but if you complete all the stages, you will be teleported to the outside of the map, where you can see where you were the whole game.

    I hope you download and have a fun time, but dont get too upset if you can't do it. (Once you know how to do it, the whole game takes less than three minutes to complete)

    Post note: I have been reccommended to give a few more screenshots to advertise the map, so here are two hopefully vague shots that can show Shadow's craftsmanship without ruining the game.

    Lastly due to the incompotence to make a proper gametype, here is a vague screen shot to tell you you completed the puzzle properly.

    Also, it is very difficult at first, so eventually I shall release a spoiler thread as to how to successfully play Haaha

    "neone saying this after me will be considered spam"...... lol????

    Any way all is good but your pics of course and need just a few more so it well not stray aways the DL's. Im not sure exactly what the point is is, but ill go with the slayer :) From the one pic im seeing, it looks clean/well forged, and seems its one of those intence games. No rating though :(

    By the way Pomegrenade, you dont have to have 2, this is up to standers.

    It is a puzzle in the sense that the player starts at point A, and must go through many different rooms to get to point B. You do not need the gametype for this but instead just make it so that players dont have grenades, It doesn't matter really its just how the game was intended.

    I hate it when people say, I don't wanna spoil the surprise, because the map usually sucks from past experiences. If you really want people to DL, put some more info. You don't have to give it ALL away but enough to make it seem desirable for players.

    Well, alright then, I do not want to dissapoint anyone. It is just that the tasks are so simple once you learn how to do them, but if it helps:

    When you are at the part with the truck, first you must make sure that it is out of its spawn position, then you must destroy it with the grenades given. Wait for them to respawn then kill yourself. Go back to the truck and repeat if neccessary. The truck dissapears if it has been destroyed, and has moved from the spawn, and noone is around. When playing in group games make sure everyone knows as it will get very frustrating when there is always someone in the room with the truck, as it will always stay there unaffected and in the way.

    Hopefully, that will be enough information to keep the intrest going.

    Giving specific instructions is spoiling the map like you just did.
    Giving subtle hints and detailed descriptions for each picture is adding a sense of smell to your thread. MEaning if it smells good, players will want to taste it... or DL it.

    My apologies. It is just that I am not made for advertising, while I am trying to make systems for it. Also, that part is very hard to figure out as no puzzle has done it before.

    If anyone has beaten it (to where you are teleported to the last picture) please tell me and I or Shadow could work on any advice you may give us.
