Fun Fun Fun - GrandmasterJ

 


    This is a map that has nothing to do with the title. The map description is candid about the fact that the rooms are textureless, the hallways are pitch black, and there are a ton of monsters.

Map review of Fun Fun Fun

(originally posted on SCMapDB)

    This map is a large well lit room filled with what looks like a handful of each alien enemy with a large very dark hallway wrapped around it that ends in a ramp to a platform that overlooks the room. From this platform I can see a hole in the ceiling that is so far up I will never be able to get in there without cheats. From screenshots I can see weapons in there. Down here I don't have weapons, I have a pistol and 17 bullets.

    I feel like this map is a slap in the face.

Pros:

Cons:

  • absolute terrible design in every category
  • players are taunted with actual fun just out of reach

Score: 0 / 10

The Absolute State of this Blog

   I'm a big fan of Sven Co-op, so much so that I was only half joking when I presented the terrible idea of playing and reviewing every map to my partner in crime, Dunkelschwamm. Much to my surprise she agreed and now here we are, 371 maps in to the 1558 maps currently on the Sven Co-op map database . It was done primarily to get people to stop leaving reviews in the comments and to actually put them in the review section. Let me just check the reviews on the map database. . . . yeah, I think it sort of worked. Then we got nervous that wikidot might die and take the site with it so I created this blog as a mirror.      Dunkel was unemployed at the time and my fiancé still had tons of patience for me so it went swimmingly, I think we averaged something like 15 reviews a week. I did the math but circumstances keep changing and so do the numbers, so that's a very rough estimate. We both dabbled in making maps for Sven long ago when the game was relevant and popula...

Swiss Cheese Halloween - Dunkelschwamm

        Swiss Cheese Halloween is a conversion of an ancient Half-Life mod of the same name. It was made back in the whimsical time of 2002 by an author who goes by Swiss Cheese, hence the map name. SCMapDB page Original mod author: Swiss Cheese Conversion author: Garompa Date of original mod release: 2002 Date of final Sven map release: 2020 Maps in package: 12 Map review of Swiss Cheese Halloween (originally posted on SCMapDB) by dunkelschwamm | November 27, 2021 | 6988 characters      A classic Halloween mod that's great for nostalgia and festivity, but frequently trips over itself.      Some information: Swiss Cheese Halloween is an old Halloween-themed Half-Life singleplayer mod. It was one of the first Half-Life mods I ever played, years ago. I was excited to play through it with a buddy in Sven, so I got this port. This review is following our finishing of the mod together.      The mod as a whole offers many m...

Civil Defence - Dunkelschwamm

Image
       Kill a bunch of soldiers and aliens in some generic warehouses and offices somewhere in a red brick city. It's a pretty straightforward map that requires at least two people. SCMapDB page Authors: Daniel Plant Date of release: 2004 Maps in package: 1 Map review of Civil Defence (originally posted on SCMapDB) by dunkelschwamm | January 7, 2024 | 3588 characters      Civil Defence is a very simple sequence of gunfighting arenas in a warehouse district setting. Players fight their way out of a building by escaping along its fire escape, then through the district, before moving through a sewers area to the final battle. The first third of the map sees players fighting blackops grunts and assassins, before things take a sudden shift and see the players fighting an odd combination of vortigaunts, gonomes, and shock troopers (with a few itchyosaurs, and eventually a voltigore, thrown into the mix).      The battles in this are intense.
