I guess after making quite a few melee maps by now it is a good time to start my own map collection thread. Not only to post previously publish maps but also to show some concepts and wips that i don't want to create seperate threads for :D

Wow, pretty good set of maps.

Snowblind looks... blindingly white (beautiful!) but haha it is strange how it doesn't have symmetry. Have you put much thought into creating decently balanced positions?

i think i have spent far more time on snowblind than on any other map, because of the balancing. but it never got enough testgames played and people were very skeptical about the lack of symmetry from the start. i guess the world isn't ready for non symmetrical maps yet!

i originally wanted to submit it for the 3player motm, but i ended up labeling it fun map and submitted another map.

edit: some of my thoughts on asymmetric maps can also be found here.

here's another map idea i am working on.
the map has forced cross positions, but you have 2 different possible spawn positions.
also there are ruins that atm only small units can pass through, but will block off larger units. i may make those non-pathable, tho.

Awesome!!!
I've been thinking about the forced cross positions recently. I MUST TRY IT.

Forced cross positions is essentially two 1v1 maps in one. It's a great idea, and I first saw it from Starparty V, where only the middle was different. This map has a lot of differences, which is a step in the right direction! I might make those ruins unpathable so that early Marines don't piss me off.

Another minor thing I'd change is make the middle ramp between the high grounds smaller and the outside ramps larger. Well, mainly just make the outside ramps larger. Right now a contain could harm the defender without a flanking option, so pushing is the way to go, but against a ramp that is 2x could be bad depending on the type of contain.

Life for you's been less than kind, so take a number stand in line, we've all been sorry we've all been hurt, but how we survive is what makes us who we are.

I am impressed by the way you improved from the beginning. When you look at Moonwell and Rattlecage, you can't say at first glance that it's the same author.

That typhon map is a lot better than Starparty V, the difference of gameplay is too limited in my map. Your map has more potential.

currently 150x150, but the map borders are a bit too close ^^
so itll be more like 154 or 156 in the end

some update on the new map. i don't have a name for it yet, so there's still no mapthread for it. name suggestions welcome. i was thinking of something like scorched grounds, but that sounds too similar to blizzards scorched haven map.

[image loading]

textures are 6x ulaan, + tarsonis grass and typhon earth

this new map has very nice expansion choices, a unique layout and stunning and innovative aesthetics, I like

Overall I'm very impressed by your clear yet beautiful texture work. Especially little things like the custom brick texture on Rattlesnake I love
