[Overview in spoiler above!]

Hey all!

I’m quite proud to be showing off my map, tentatively named de_funcenter. I started the map back in November to try and get out of a slump and back into Hammer after years of relative neglect. The initial inspiration for de_funcenter was a combination of a few thought experiments:

1. A theme that moved away from traditional military and criminal themes slightly, focusing on something more colorful, athletic and blatantly artificial and arena-like.

2. Something that blended well with CSGO’s vibrant and unconventional weapon skins and sprays, as well as the general lighthearted, competitive tone of the game.

3. Level design that plays with CSGO’s typical mechanics and movesets to some degree; with a focus on tighter, segmented grenade play and a very claustrophobic interior site that favors close quarters battles and frequent breaks in player sightlines and contact points.

It is set in an abandoned fun center that is being refurbished (current screenshots don’t reflect this) by a band of young punks who are turning it into a base filled with narcotics and firearms. While away, SWAT seized the facility and now the criminals have rushed to destroy the evidence by any means necessary.

I should have a workshop link “soon”. I just want to clean up and finalize a lot of minor visual tweaks. Anyways, a link to an imgur album with more pictures will be included below, please feel free to comment and critique!
