Three net maps: Stuffed Tomatoe, Stuffed Aubergine, and The Dragon.

An awesome MMR map, by ooga, Locucious, and Orion.

A Sounds patcher for the Yota Saga maps. The first three segments of this series used the Infinity Sounds file, but all subsequent installments have used a custom Sounds file. This patcher, designed to be applied to a virgin Sounds file, replaces all old versions, and provides 16-bit as well as 8-bit sounds for the series.

6 levels (well, one, with 6 variations). Two teams of VacBobs (green and blue), and two health options (normal, and pretty weak). You can start as a neutral player (nobody hates you until you start killing, but the blues hate the greens, and vice-versa), or on a team - action gets pretty frenetic with the final couple of options. A few bugs, but quite playable... see how long you can stay alive on the VacBob levels (without hiding)!

Two and a half years ago, Hamish Sanderson released Trojan: Legacy, a rather odd but extremely interesting little project. Today, Raul Bonilla (the man behind the Marathon 1 to Aleph One project) releases the Legacy Sampler for Aleph One. There are a few differences (the overhead map works, the HUD is different, terminals are green, not blue, The knife from Trojan has been incorporated), but for the most part, this port is faithful to the original, and plays quite well. Give it a whirl... and then go back and play the original (which, unfortunately, no longer installs on MacOS > 9.0 - one of these days, I'll build a new installer for it). The maze section is brilliant.

A simple simplici7y map (meaning it has but 7 polys). Sound's a little funky (there are a couple of polys with no sound, leading to some jarring transitions), but it's got decent flow for a tiny map - be careful, the elevator leading out of the moat isn't as responsive as you might think (it's easy to get spanked down there if you think you're coming up..).

A two-level wheel. Plenty of ammo and weapons, easy cover. Movement (due to the small size and the teleporters) is very fast.

Complicated, funky spaces, lots of stairs. Takes a little while to get used to - figure out where you are. More than enough ammo and weapons for a huge game - tight enough (once you get used to it) for a small one.

This was FUN. 8 or 10 levels, depending on how you count... beautiful mapmaking. Some of the levels had a flow problem (hit this switch, run over here, look for a newly-opened area... run BACK over here, hit this other switch, lather, rinse, repeat), but overall, this was acceptable - the levels were just very nice to look at. Lots to kill, lots of ammo to kill it with. Terms were translated from the original german, and can be a bit difficult to follow (especially since they (for the most part) rely on words, not pictures, to get you from point a to point b)... but again, this isn't critical - when in doubt, kill stuff and throw switches. Give it a look - mapmakers, there are lots of cool ideas here; players, there's a chunk of fun carnage here.
