Q1SP: Binding Tower
Binding Tower

Description:
Ominous silence surrounds a forgotten tower in a forest glade. Death Squads quietly patrol its surroundings, ready to unleash hell upon any visitor. You have just arrived in yet another distant world ravaged by Quake. This is my second published map and my first attempt at making a map with some outside forest areas. Enjoy!

Cool Second/first Map 
Great details, great atmosphere, great gameplay. This one was fun to play.

Enchanting Forest ! 
From the Tim Burtonesque ambiance to the most intriguing trees, everything oozes fineness here. Very hard to describe this map without spoiling all the nice visual touches, original gameplay mechanics and unique use of old id1 standards. I thought 'What a nice map to introduce Quake to kids...' (and I mean that not in a childish way !).I played through this intricately crafted little gem with a constant smile on my face. What a charming map ! 
Congrats On Your Second Map! 
I had a Pan's Labyrinth moment when I went from the forest through a cave to suddenly inside a castle! There were a number of thematic surprises like this I enjoyed. Definitely would enjoy some more in this world and this feeling :)

Mechanically, the encounters were a little simple, but the quad damage section was fun! Managed to clear all the enemies in that area before the quad ran out.

Well done! 
A Lot Of Fun! 
I loved the theme of this map. I'd love to see more. It had such a great atmosphere. My only issue was it was too short! :) 
Excellent Map! 
This is a great one, well within the Quake spirit.

I love that kind of "Out Of This World" style! 
Thanks! 
I'm glad you guys like it and thanks for the kind words. Going to try to improve my visual style and world building, but also focus on adding more gameplay mechanics and better encounters in the future. Oh and thanks for the video wizardbeard, was fun and useful to watch.
