A groovy map. Washed out lighting, but good clean gameplay. I think it might become a hit(hua hua).

highly original, some cool things in it, and good worked out theme, but didnt liked the gameplay that much, it was decent but nothing to make me say woow and the map has lots of hiding places and stuff, i could camp with my flag on some rocks high above the map behind a palmtree :) and other stuff like that, and some doors are to tight, could be frustrating, and music makes me want to jump out of the window :)
terrain looks a bit blocky at times though, but not too bad
though floorplan isnt bad, and the map has nice things, like texturing and stuff, nice map

dunno, I dont really like pseudo-realistic maps but that's just me

the map's a nice little ctf level - I can't comment on the gameplay as I've not played it... but it looks ok if a little un-assuming.

That's an understatement, but i didn't feel like this was your bestest map. Altho the new artwork was nice :D

It turned out a little more blocky than I would have liked really, but it's all about the funk baybee

That's my story and I'm sticking to it :p

i haven't played it yet either but i thought the music track was great, the lighting was spot on and the theme was really nicely done.

Ok...

"Meh Pentyum 166 is a goode compyooter and this maplevel is so slow!!! It must sucks.

There was some ghey music i don't know why there was no slipknot instead because when i frag I like to listen to SLIPKNOUGHT RULEZ!!!

Then i captured the flag against 57 novice bots (who were all on mye team) so the bots suck in this map too.

so this map is okay but i would note play it again and i deleted it

9/10"

actually, looking at it again the scale is a little screwy. either ulukai is 1.5ft tall or there are some huge juke boxes where he lives.

I notice the bots mostly come from only one path.
(right under the sniper point)

oh well...

I had a lot of fun playing this map, it's somehow...stylish :D

In terms of style, it reminds me a lot of No One Lives Forever; playing Tantric Havana feels a bit like visiting some of the cool retro locations of that game, also because the music or the sound when you get the flag add to the atmosphere.

Dunno if you played NOLF (all that could also have something to do with some Austin Powers influence ;) ), but playing your Map provides a really cool feeling.
