I've been working on and off on this map for quite some time. The basic premise is that you have to dodge P8's units to stay alive. Hitting one of those units will cost you one life and then you respawn in the middle. You have to be the last one with any lives left.
Some Features
- Each level lasts 2 minutes
- Unlimited levels that get harder and harder
- Dropship system for items
- P1 sets lives at beginning
There are also 8 items which will randomly spawn around the map. They are
Vortex
- Creates a swirling vortex that sucks enemy units into it and kills them at it's center
Invincibility
- You cannot be hurt
Jet
- Transforms you into a Valkyrie so you go faster
Slow Enemies
- Constantly moves a burrowed unit underneath your enemies to slow them down
Life
- Gives you an extra life
Mine
- Creates a spider mine that kills people
Spaz Enemies
- Constantly runs Junk Yard dog for your enemies
Cloaker
- Creates Arbiters for P8 and gives you vision with P8
Right now i'm just testing the map with some friends and doing some tweaking, then I have to make some text triggers to help explain the map and it's items. I'm in Whistler until friday the 30th so I won't be able to work on it or post here for that time though.
Suggestions please.

I like maps that don't fit into any category, and kinda makes its own, so this sounds awesome!

I don't like the idea.
I simply HAAATE RANDOM DAMNIT...
random is what would allow an EXPERT DAMN GOOD SKILLED player at some game get his ass kicked by some NOOOOB.

Hm......what if the possibility that Player 1 leaves the game -_+
Then what?...Gah You always gotta look around the map inside and out before you can talk about making it...Overall it sounds good

Considered already. Doesnt make a difference if he leaves.
As for the randomness, would you prefer the items to spawn in the same spot in a preset order all the time?
