Some of you may have read on NUMA and elsewhere that I've been working on a mappack for quite some time now. For those who hadn't heard, I've been working on a mappack for quite some time now. :P

I am starting this thread with some great news: it's almost done. And, because some people thought Twilight was a bit underhyped, I decided I'd share that news with you a little sooner.

Over the past several months (it may even be over a year), I have made more than the necessary amount of maps and pruned away those which didn't make the cut. At the moment, the remaining maps are still unorganized; that will be my next task, along with the usual tweaking and polishing. When that is done, the pack will be ready for release!

I don't have a release date set in stone yet, but I think I'll be aiming for June 1st. My schedule can get pretty unpredictable, so I can't guarantee much, except that I won't let this slide for too long.

A lot of work has gone into this pack, and I'm really looking forward to sharing it with you all very soon. I'd like to thank epigone for taking the time to play and comment on almost all of the maps; without him, I probably wouldn't be posting this topic right now. I'd also like to thank atob and incluye for their support.

Here's to only another month or so of waiting! :)

I'm excited.

Me too.

How big is the pack going to be, Pheidi?

Fifty maps, plus a tad extra. A very small tad, but a tad. ;)

This is definitely going to overshadow my upcoming pack..
Oh well, looking forward to this :)

I can't wait!

Twenty seven days, four hours, twelve minutes and thrity seconds left! OH THE HYPE!

51 then ;P

<3

Oh, I was wondering about this. Well, since I had the privilege of having a nice sneak preview, let me just say this: GET EXCITED!!! THIS PACK IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!

OH GOD CANT TAKE THE SUSPENSE.

Well, this'll make a nice birthday treat. :D

I like your Monologue and Dialogue packs, so I'm excited for this. Will there be any theme to the mappack?

Gah. Sorry, guys, but June 1st (tomorrow) isn't looking good. I'm almost done, though, and I'll be trying to wrap things up this week.

Bumped because I'm very nearly done. The 52 maps are roughly sorted out. I need to tweak 2 maps still, and I'm going to sleep on the ordering to make sure I've got it right (and find some help if I don't), but be on the lookout for NUMA teasers fairly soon. Thanks for bearing with me, guys. ^_^

52, my lucky number!

The pack is in its final stages of playtesting. Set to release midnight, June 21st. Woot.

Woot. It's released on the summer-solstice and the day after my 16th :)

Nice. I would love to see your maps, Pheidi. Because I only played few map of yours'. :/
I like the release date.
