COMMENTS

First encounter with Technika will impress any Unreal gamer. It has a professional polish in both design choices and layout. Symmetry has not been invited in and THIS MAP will show how sweet that can be. Most rooms, however, are extremely small and if not for the rapid exposure to ... a night sky ... it would have been excessively claustrophobic. All-in-all, a near professional map who's misgivings must be squeezed out to stand out. Please note you beginning mappers how the use of ramps vs stairways in no-way reduces the reality factor and aids the computer's ability to render this delightful surreal environment. There is only one stairway which belongs to, what appears, a MAIN control area adding to it's sense of importance. I am a "tad" curious about the lone light placed in the floor ??? Every time I ran by it ... I had to mentally pause with a moment of bemusement. However, since that is one of my common states, I managed to breeze right through it, LOL. Thus, if your looking for a mini-(semi)-perfect Unreal map dash about in Technika. PS: bring your own weapon (or bandages and running shoes) if the house is full. d:-)
