Timeline

"Ok, Cannon Fodder"

6 maps, and a physics model. A pretty good spread-a bungie tribute, a few KOH maps, a novelty level, and a couple of flavors of a nice paintball-style arena. Fast-paced, generally...

Duality for M2

The net level included with the Infinity demo, for those of you unwilling or unable to download the 19 meg file yourself. The only change was Type code, so that M2 would recognize it. Otherwise, it's the same as the Infinity level.

Good Day 2 Die

The main room is a bunch of walkways between raised areas. There are overlooks that give you a birds-eye view of the arena (this was the author's original impetus), and lots of back passageways for hiding in/getting to sniper positions. More ammo than you'll ever need.

Kill or be Killed

A large map, broken into a few rooms. Lots of ledge shooting... and doors that look like walls. Should boil down to an arena map, with a few areas to take breathers in.

M2 Suicide v17

Three more levels, all original. The first one's pretty much deadly, and the second is hard to look at... but the third is a blast.

Majordomo V1.3

A large, two-level arena. The hill is elevated, and can be reached from walkways at all four points of the compass. Travel between the floor and the upper areas is well-facilitated, and in general, flow is quite nice. The hill's big enough that you can dodge almost anything coming at you... in order to knock someone off, it'll be necessary to get on it yourself. Update tweaks alignment and object placement.

Marathon Film Installer 1.0a5

Will allow you to replace the films built in to Marathon 1 or 2 (the ones that show if you leave the main screen up too long) with your own. Update adds compatibility with Infinity.

Mission: Improbable

A sequel to Operation: Exaggeration. 12 levels (or so... a couple don't really count, in terms of gameplay). This one's a winner. It's not the most visually stunning, or the hardest... but the AIs are very funny, the physics are brilliant, and the tributes are really, really well done. Don't miss this map-it'll give you ideas for your own maps. (And the sense of humor shown in the storyline is really refreshing, after all the 'save the universe'-type plots.)

Nokrah Torture Chamber

A KOH level with a big central hill, and waterfilled arms around it... you can come out low, or you can come out high. Problem is, the hill is big enough that it ain't like shooting fish in a barrel...
