    From the creator of "It's Sumo Time".....

    we proudly present

    Rat Race

    Rat Race is a combintation of a mongoose race and duckhunt. In the middle of the map is a gauss warthog that can't move. The purpose for him is to shoot as many gooses of the map as he can. The mongooses are safe most of the time, but at times they have to jump grav lifts, pass open areas and conquer other obstacles. At these moment you'll be open for incoming fire, you can't die, but you can fall off.

    To make it a bit easier for the mongooses I've created a race with a King of the Hill gametype. When you pass a obstacle you'll have to wait in the hill. This is so that the first person to passes get's the most points. Also when the hill moves almost everyone will try the next obstacle at the same time = guaranteed fun :)! The warthog gunner gets 5 points for every kill he makes and you get 1 point for every second in the hill.

    I did use some interlocking in the map, but not a lot. I only used it to improve gameplay and not aesthetics. However, every form of feedback is appericated! Now... screenshots!

    Have fun and see you guys online



    Note: At this moment the spawns are not working as they supposed to be. You can however get a sneak preview at my map. If you think you can help me out with the spawns, please explain in this thread.

    I would like this so much more if you set it up for infection. That way, it could be a little bit more like duck hunt. And to me, that's so much more fun.

    Well what improvements would that give? How do you have that in mind? The Zombie infects someone and then? He's outta lives? Sounds a bit lame. And with this gametype people will try the challenges at the same time and it becomes a lot more fun. This way both the Cat and the rats can get points :)
