This map was the first time I did any game/map development since 2017, so the first few months of this project took a while for me to get re-accustomed to the tools. First blockout date was Feb 29th, and I just pushed pre-release update today, August 6th. I began the project with 9yz, who helped with the initial detailing and theme development, a lot of which is no longer in the level today. The map has gone under different names such as Shortdam and Calamari, as the theme has slightly shifted over time to what it is now. The biggest development period began in late June where I received help from Sir Thomas- who between him and I did a nearly complete overhaul of the visuals and revamped two routes.
I got lots of help from my friends, like Jonmcbane who did the logo. I also received permission from PROXY, the world-famous DJ to use some of his music in the map trailer- which releases tomorrow at 8:15PM CST, with the workshop page. I can't thank everyone at MapCore and Source Engine Discord enough, as I got lots of help getting readjusted to working with Source again. I plan to work on more maps, and I hope everything goes smoothly from here on out.
