Pennyless
Created by Deathtoll77 & idiotninja
Gametypes Supported: Coin Slot
Recommended Players: 6-16

Ever pondered what happens to a quarter when your put it into a soda machine? Well, worry no longer because here we have the perfect interpretation of what happens in the mechanisms of such a machine. Pennyless is a mini-game which takes the needler from Purple Monster and puts the humans into an even more perilous position. Your only chance of survival? Well, there is none. The player must jump, punch and jump some more past the competition to retrieve better equipment to stay alive for as long as possible.

While a player is doing that the zombies, needler in hand, are trying their best to "needle" the humans who are jumping about. If they so happen to fall they will do so into a deathpit. The arena itself is a large canyon with an assortment of equipment placed upon platforms to help slow their descent. Only the last surviving coin receives points. Who will be the final penny down the slot?

Although unexpected, this map fits the bill for a featurable mini-game map

I made the video for the old v2 of this, and playtesting it was a bunch-o-fun!

'Gratz on the feature :D

Great to see this got featured. Quite deserving of the front page if I don't say so myself.

One of the more unique maps to be put forth recently. I love the concept, and I'm glad all errors from previous versions were fixed.

feature very well deserved. This IMO is the best mini game to date. Its so... "thrilling". I had a blast playing with the creators and testing this map. From the details they told me the put a tremendous amount of effort into this map. Again, Very well deserved feature.

oh btw; IMO v3 video is better sdrakulich :D

I give pennyless v3 by Deathtoll77 and idiotninja a gracious 1/5, because I can't go lower. Next time you guys want to make a minigame map (and honestly I hope you do because you have proven yourselves that you are creative) think before you post.

Winning isnt all that matters, is it? Maybe it's just me, but I dont care if I win...hell, if I wanted to win, I'd be playing Matchmaking. But i'm not, I'm playing a minigame, and the reason I'm playing it is to have fun. And fun I have, even if I automatically loose every game, I still have fun.

And thats all that should matter for a minigame, though I try to keep a scoring system for my own minigames. He could easily have used a KOTH/VIP system, but thats OK. His system works fine.
