Spoiler: Mapping information (Open)

If you're interested in helping with Push, the biggest thing we could use at the moment is maps. We already have 70, but the more the merrier.

Mapping for Push is extremely simple, considering how the maps are all basically just "large arena and instant-kill floor". Detailing and fancy work is generally minimal, emphasis is on making an arena with an interesting layout and easy-to-maneuver architecture.
I dumped out the first map in, like, ten minutes and people seemed to like it. Weird!

If you're so inclined (and we would deeply appreciate your efforts), requirements are as follows:
- Hexen or UDMF format (UDMF preferred).
- Instant-kill floor.
- Very large layout. Most maps are generally around the 10240-unit limit.
- Tracker music. Tracker music has both high quality and a small filesize. If you're not familiar with tracker music, don't worry and I'll pick a track for it.
- Don't make goatse.
- Yeah...
- That's pretty much it.
- I'm gonna get some hot chocolate.

Please either post submissions in the thread, pm them to me, or post them in the IRC.

Spoiler: tl;dr (Open)

Man, oh man, what a crazy ride this has been.

It’s been…what, a week? Two weeks? Barely any time at all since I started trying to throw a friend off a cliff with some grenades and got the idea for this. And in such a short amount of time, an amazing amount of people have come together to provide a slew of different interesting, entertaining, unique maps for this.

I’d originally just started fiddling with this out of boredom, taking an hour out of DemonSteele to have a giggle with a mate. And yet, somehow, it exploded in popularity. Server is active, people are playing it, a metagame has developed, and it’s even going to be featured in this week’s Friday Night Fragfest. And, of course, the maps. Oh, the maps. Tons of different people came together to throw together maps for this.

Overall, though, I’m amazed, I’m baffled, and I’m humbled.

I’m amazed. I’ve never actually had anyone come map for me before—when I put out the original PUSH01 map, I fully expected that would be the only thing it ever gets.
I’m baffled. Out of all the mods people like, this is the one that grabs the people’s gaze? I spent maybe an hour on this, at most, just a silly thing while waiting for a friend to finish a sprite for DemonSteele. Even now, I barely touch the base gameplay, I mostly tweak and adjust maps. There are hundreds of other mods more in-depth and detailed than mine, probably more deserving of attention.
I’m humbled. But, in the end, you guys chose this one. And you gave me miles upon miles of support for it, and decided it’d be good to do your own stuff for. This is a testament to the power of the Doom community—you guys can take a dumb little mod by one nerd with one gun and one map and suddenly it blossoms into a major deal with its own maps and its own player sprites and a server constantly hopping with people and everything.

Damn.

What can I say to that?

You’re all incredible. Every single one of you.

Thank you. Thank you all very, very much.
