This mappack would not exist without Lucidium, who invented jumpers and popularized the sub-genre I will now refer to as the "sky-jumper" and b3njamin, who has further explored so many of its possibilities, with great skill and fantastic results.
I cannot thank all of you enough!
A definition:
"sky-jumper"
noun
A subgenre of jumper maps, whose conceptual framework involves the structuring of precise jumps high above the ground, usually with no way to safely reach the ground (or no way to return from it). Object enemies are often peripheral or absent entirely from these maps.
