It went more or less like I expected, a wild shifting landscape with all sorts of stuff to see and do. Every room offered something new.      I supp...

The Community Map Project - Dunkelschwamm

      Featuring 15 authors, 7 years of development (or 12 depending on how you define 'development time'), and 7 individual maps, The Community Map Project is a beast of a map set. Somewhat unrelated, but this post taught me that Blogger has limits to how many labels a post can have, a max of 20, when I was tagging this post I was forced to leave out 'series' and 'Black Mesa'.

Actual - Dunkelschwamm

Image
       Actual is an early Sven map where players take on the role of airplane crash survivors. They must penetrate a strange laboratory in order to escape the wreckage. SCMapDB page Author: The_6th_Monkey Date of final release: 2003 Maps in package: 2 Map review of Actual (originally posted on SCMapDB) by dunkelschwamm | January 23, 2022 | 3930 characters      Actual is a 2 part mapset released almost 20 years ago as of writing this review. It's an action survival walkthrough map.      The first Actual map opens in an airplane, which impressively crashes in a sequence where parts of the plane are blown off, revealing the outside. After the crash, players must swim in the half-submerged plane to safety. By swimming you can find what looks like a breakroom area with a few aliens in it. From there, you can swim and crawl around in caves until the map ends. That's the map. It's short and finding your way out of the plane is kind of diff...

SCMapDB page Author: The_6th_Monkey Date of final release: 2003 Maps in package: 2 Map review of Actual (originally posted on SCMapDB) by GrandmasterJ | January 23, 2022 | 6530 characters      This is a map that I had high hopes for. The screenshots for it look pretty good and I thought the story would lead us somewhere interesting. It had its ups and downs nut ultimately I think the map kind of flopped.      Players start out in an airplane. The proportions are horrible, chairs are massive and everything seems really big. Maybe this is how first class VIPs fly, but in my experience this plane was like three times too big. Then the plane begins to crash, there is a pretty cool bit where a hole opens up in the plane and we get to see simple scenery rush by. I thought it loo...
