Great job on being unique, though!
i think people will attempt to recreate maps like this, but i doubt any of them will be as succesful, cheat proof and challenging.

And distortion actually had quite a few spinoffs, some that were pretty different than others.

I can't believe it Buddhacrane! Yet another amazing feature for you, and to say it's the first after the Conflict map's. I bet you're very proud of yourself for this accompishment. I know I am.

Although I think I've hit the 100 custom content limit, oh jeez. I guess I can make some room. Forger's Cell looks like one of your best!

(What the hell was I thinking when I posted this?)

when i first read this i though WOW, that's amazing. i was rather put off by the fact that you can't spawn anything. That being said, it is still amazingly innovative, and definitely deserves a feature, if for nothing else but thinking outside the box, and actually pulling it off.



Or, on a happier note:

That is correct, that's exactly that I did. The hard part was devising a contraption that prevented you getting passed the first room if you did restart the round. I found a way though ;)

That and getting rid of all those damn spawn points!

I'm sure no one thought puzzle maps in general would catch on either ;)

Don't underestimate those wishing to push themselves for a challenge. The fun of creating a map like this is that it will not only challenge the players who try to complete them, but also the forgers trying to design and build them. I had a lot of fun trying to make this work, and I hope others give it a try too!

There's plenty of room for new puzzle ideas with a brand new concept like this. Just think how long we've been going creating new puzzle ideas in regular puzzle maps!

Actually, you can spawn a barrel! ;)

I had to be very careful what I allowed people to spawn. You don't realise how much of a can of worms it would be to give people too much flexibility and freedom in a map like this. Maybe if I make another one I will look more at that side of things. The problem is that once I let you spawn an item, you're free to use it for the rest of the map.

Anyway, thank you all for your positive comments and reactions. I'm happy to help people stuck on certain puzzles so PM me if you need any extra hints.

Yeah! I knew this map would get loved, and I knew this map deserved so much respect. Its a whole new idea, and even after someone has done it it will take another genious to do it again. I really loved this, and even though its short you will spend more time on it than on any other puzzle map you have ever done, if simply to replay and try to understand it! I first said that this was the most ingenious puzzle ever built, and apperently everyone agrees. Congrats, and nice job.

Edit: Agh! I went to the voting bar, and learned that there is no button for "Holy Fricken S***!!"

make an item not spawn right away, then when you start a forge game its not selectable, just start a new round and you will see
sorry if I'm ruining anything Buddhacrane
edit: i haven't gotten on the map so i don't know if that's how he did it, i just know that's one way to
