A bomb defusal map set outside Tokyo, Japan.
"Terrorists are trying to disrupt the research of the controversial Season Corporation."
Please support and download the map at:
The first two screenshots look excellent, when you start introducing more colors it gets a little muddled. Keep it dual tone (white +green) then introduce one very deliberate, very intentional color either via lighting or something else. Then I think you'll have an incredibly strong visual 
(third and fourth screenshot = too many muddled, conflicting colors)
Well hmm. Mixed reviews. That makes me lean towards trying it...
It really did turn out great in the end. What is your next project? Will you make more Unreal stuff?
Can anyone point out where the map uses Chinese characters? That's my bad.
Seriously Shawn, you get so much praise that most people would turn into arrogant assholes and you're already an American
But here you are, sharing, giving advice, writing articles, etc. So props for keeping your feet on the ground.
On top of that, I don't think you make maps. You make art.
if I was the genius who made Season in the first place I'm sure I'd be arrogant about it, but that was Ted I'm just grateful I got to work with him and he was so helpful makin shit and bein a bro. The luck I've had with collaborators in CS:GO has been ridiculous: 3DNJ, kikette, Volcano, penE, Ted. bunch of all stars, you could build a pretty badass studio with that amount of raw talent... its nutty if you stop and think about it. i just feel blessed and lucky.
Gonna release it this Sunday
I guess this is the downside of taking so many risks, it might take 2-3 sequels to properly iron out this hide and seek game mechanic. Damn, well it looks visually gorgeous at least.

Quote from The Honey BadgerI've posted another sticker if anyone's interested:
PWN'D based on graffiti tagging. All feedback is welcome, good or bad.

This is a brilliant idea, I think you should tweak the readability of the text though, it's really hard to make out the phrase when you're looking at it. Simpler definition on the letters and better borders would probably solve the issue, I think you should keep working on it because it's a great concept
Quote from duxI was at least expecting them to show the entries, I mean we had to sit around watching some guy trying to double jump around his map. I was waiting to see everyone's great work.
NOPE.
"Maybe we will remember to send a t-shirt to some guy who bothered with this." Was basically what I took away from it.
Lame!
Thanks for the feedback bros, gonna definitely incorporate some of this stuff into the map soon. Last thing I put together before bed, peaceee

Quote from VayaMan you really need to have a thick skin for this shit. I suppose you can't expect the average gamer to apply more reasoning than 'that sux' or 'thats amazing!!!' though
The reskin looks very nice and is exactly what kind of map CS:GO needs just now.
It's fucking stressful I'm not even gonna lie. I'm not talking about the content of messages at all, good or bad, positive or negative, just interacting with 1000's of people on forums is pretty stressful haha. Gotta meditate hard on those times cuz it'll stress ya out.
Looking good Shawn.
Thanks! Ted helped out a ton with props.
Quote from PogoPLooks cool man. Where's this set, some kind of hipster Mountain lab?
Only the coolest of the cool are allowed to play Season. *flips hair*
Max Reiger posted some comparison pics on his website
Yeah it's great that you're starting to look at your work a bit more critically and see ways to improve it, screenshots are a solid way to do that. Keep it up.
Quote from blackdogWaiting luggage to be loaded on plane, flying back home for a brief holiday… I might be able to play a few rounds of CSGO, I wonder how many gigs to update it!
"the bomb has been planted" *people stare at you*
Great entries all, and great job Sprony organizing everything. So impressed by the productivity on display.
Do whatever the hell you want. That's the fun part 
Dude, the brushwork on this house fucking blows. Good luck
