Default Master Hand


Master Hand
Created By: Eyeless Sid

Gametypes Supported: Master Hand, Hand Brawl

Recommended Players: 4-8

Any gamer worth their salt has at least a passing acquaintance with Super Smash Bros, and diehard fans will feel right at home with Master Hand, Eyeless Sid's mini-game recreation of the party classic. The centerpiece of the map is the enormous outstretched hand, beautifully forged to an imposing standard and surrounded by an array of supporting structures which enhance the maps solid playability and provide a variety of interesting routes onto the hand.

Sporting two dedicated gametypes, Master Hand's Super Smash Bros. roots come to the fore with the Master Hand KotH variant. Hills are located on the palm, fingers and thumb of the hand and you must push your opponents out using the Hammers and Needlers provided since players are invulnerable and subject to higher gravity when inside the hill. Once you have dislodged those pesky foes you are free to slaughter them, but move fast since players outside the hill have decreased gravity, increased speed and a resistance bonus. If you feel for something a little more casual then drop in with Hand Brawl, the Slayer variant. With Hammers and random secondary weapons on spawn making for some very interesting fights and the hand still stealing the show as a battleground, this map is a must for nostalgic gamers and Halo devotees alike.

Yah, this map is tight, I love the aesthetics on it. What I especially like is the fact that you can play king of the hill on this. Eyeless Sid, you deserve the feature. This map brings back a lot of memories, I remember playing against my friends in Super Smash Bros to see who could beat the campaign the fastest. Congratulations! Oh, and BTW eguitarplaya33, I wanted the First post, thats why I didnt take the time to make a well thought out post. =D

Wow, I havnt seen this map, but I am very glad that it got featured. I never thought of creating a hand out of double boxes and using it in gameplay.
wow great idea.
Keep up the great work and congrats on the feature

Great job with the feature Sid. I remember posting on your original thread and I just loved the map. The aesthetics of the hand are just unbelievable and you can also play on the this map too which is rare for an aesthetic-looking map. Took a while to get featured but nevertheless, it's well deserving.

Man, that is unique. I use to love that game and would play it all the time. This is really cool and original. The hand looks amazing and the grav lift with the power up in it looks cool too.

Nice it finally got featured, i saw this like 2-3 months ago and was wondering why this wasn't on the frontpage. The aesthetics are excellent (the hand is a proportional hand with finger lengths) the gameplay is also excellent and unique with that hand in the middle. Congrats eyeless on the feature!



^^^Click it?^^^
