Will you be doing a "making of" section like you did with your previous maps? I have always found these most interesting. Also, why did you decide to make another dust map? Not that I am complaining, but surely it would be impossible to match the success/playability of dust1 and dust 2.

I agree - matching Dust or Dust 2 is ridiculous. I doubt I'll ever be able to do that.

The point of this map was to go alongside the tutorials I wrote for PC Gamer, to demonstrate the steps. That was the point all along, which is why the map is so varied and a little smaller than the existing Dust maps.

The aim was to create tutorials and an example map to go with them, not the other way around. Of course, things never quite turn out that way!

I'm desperately hoping this will be my last Dust map. I want to do new stuff, as does everyone else. It's more fun and more of a challenge. This map is really a very public stepping stone.
