Trivia

  • This map shares a lot in common with classic UT map CTF-LavaGiant, right now to the setting taking place in an island surrounded by magma.
  • According to Tim Sweeney, Shane Caudle designed the map entirely from scratch.
On one extreme like CTF-Magma, Shane Caudle created the entire map from scratch, with almost everything being custom. The benefit of this approach is that you can get the absolute best visual quality possible, but the drawback is that it's very time-consuming and doesn't result in many prefabs that other level designers can reuse.[1]
