Guardian Ball 3.0, Grif Blast, and many others in the Noxy Dome.


So my internet was down for a majority of the night tonight, so I decided I would take the opportunity to do some uninterrupted forging. :) And so far, for one night, it's looking pretty nice.

Okay, so I'm sure some of you have played my game Guardian Ball in it's original arena or in The Cog Arena, well, I've put alot of thought forward, and with some changes to the gametype itself and how the map works, I should be able to bring in some saucy new gameplay.

For anyone that doesn't know what Guardian Ball is, I'll describe it briefly: You and a few other people (generally two to four players total) are in an empty round arena. Okay? So what's so great about that? Well, The name Guardian Ball comes from the fact that from four of the walls come blocks shooting out into the arena, and taking out anyone and everyone in their way. Sometimes "the Guardians" get more kills than the actual players. Okay, well that's an exageration, while it's a pretty hectic; fast paced game, it's still balanced enough so that it's not just pure chaos.

For a more detailed description of Guardian Ball, click the following link.

Now, where does "Grif Blast" come into play, you may be asking yourself... Well, in the newest arena, (unofficially named "The Cryptdom") a new Grifball variant will be taking place, with the scary flying boxes of doom included. If all goes as I assume it does, it should be unpredictable, addicting, and hours of relentless fun. Also, due to the fact that this arena is noticably larger than the latter versions, it supports all gametypes, but is optimized for Guardian Ball 3.0, Grif Blast, Team/FFA Snipers/BRs/Fiesta, plus MANY other games. (fiesta was a giant pile of fun)

Grif Blast is still a W.I.P.

Your internet needs to be down more often, Nick.

God damn, I envy you so much right now dude. All I ever end up doing whenever I cut myself off from the rest of the world is jack off and shit.

Show me this when I get online tomorrow. I lost my portable hard drive full of porn and I need something to smack my beef to.

Oh, and I'll comment on how it looks and how awesome the forging is (it's made by you, so I know it's forged to perfection anyway.)

Oh my gosh. ha ha ha.

I think this is a pretty good map by the looks of it. The walls and everything look nicely interlocked together. I like how you added a slight curve as it went up. That should help from not flying 2 billion ft in the air like what sometimes happens in guardian ball. ha ha ha. I look forward to seething this is the casual section. Good job.

This looks insane as when I DL'd it I felt like I was in a dome. The idea is awesome. This is like a shrine for oddball/griftball! And Scobra, you just made my day with your porn comment haha.

Since i am in the middle of assessing Grifball maps for the next refresh (one of your's included) i will not have room to download this for a few days. Can you please give me the Diameter measurements from the Spawn Area so i can get a better idea of the size?

Scobra, wow. That's all I have to say...

chung, yes, that'll help the gameplay alot. I mean, it was fun to see how far you
could fly in the air, but it was kind of a detriment to gameplay.

Thanks Phenomenal. :)

Nokyard, I believe I counted it to be 21 squares across (20 centered, plus a little half square against the wall on both sides)
heres a picture of the distance from my wall, to the crypt wall. (if that helps you at all)


Thanks Jumpman, you could always try a game of snipers in here, it might be kind of crazy with the crates. :)
