After attempting to make a map concept in GIMP, I can safely say I'm sitting out for this one. All it did was give me a headache with terrible results, haha. Looking forward to everyone's submissions though! Turns out 3-player maps are harder than I thought

Aw I don't think I'll have time to participate this go around. Will be watching for sure tho, 3player maps are such an underused format, can't wait to see what you all come up with.

I'm going to go with the crazy asymmetrical map I suppose. -_-

Well I've been trying to make a semi-symmetrical map, but not sure if I'm going to be able to finish by the end of the day O.O

I should be able to put something out, but only because it's been a bit of fun trying it out so far.

Expect something along the lines of Testbug

I'm actually going to be away for the duration of this challenge, so I won't even be able to do my own map theme. Oh well, hope you guys have fun with it. Looks like it's a doozy already.

Published on NA.

Notes: The black lined are not pathable. Each watchtower has three accessible sides, and each reveals one side of each of the other towers. Size is 148x148.

Halflight Byways (wip)

still summoning the courage to finish the aesthetics

something like 172x156 playable (lots of corner airspace yuck)
4 XNT

Center high ground pods can be used (drop tanks, cliffwalk to tower, etc); all other high ground terrain is unpathable.
Shortest route crosses tower vision but you must deviate to touch tower. Can also sneak past along center high ground.
Center tower initially blocked by 3 extra-large rocks; can be cleared one by one to giver yourself advantageous access or open the extra route. However, is accessible via drop or cliffwalk (changelings, reapers, warp prism!)

Damn you guys do nice work on short notice. Testbug got a run for its money there. ;D

I like how we have different approaches to the 3rd so far. Need more guys!

Well, with tomorrow being my actual birthday, I'm not as far along as I was planning to be right now so I doubt I'll make the deadline. Even if I can't make the competition deadline, in the spirit of participation, I'll post the resulting image when I finish in the next day or so. GL guys!

EDIT: by tomorrow I mean right now... I don't count my days until I get sleep. XD speaking of......

Don't laugh at my super-rushed aesthetics! I didn't have as much time today as I usually do when I do these challenges (and on top of that, 3p map takes twice as long lol).

White things near the 4ths are ulnar LOS blockers in case that isn't obvious.

Fog not showing up on overview (sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.. still a mystery to me) but w/e. It's not as obnoxiously green on the outsides when you can see the fog because it's whitish.

If you increase the fog starting level or intensity or something, you can make it appear in the overview.

Btw the map looks surprisingly good O_o
