Map Release: 7 New Maps

By hoLy mapper·
Hello everyone,

It's time for another map release, this time containing 3 kz maps and 4 custom ones. We still have some maps ready to be released, expect them to be out before the end of August.

Download all maps in this release: HERE

The maps are:










kz_blockrunner_2020 by SadPuppy
Challenge: Easy / Average
Length: Long
Type: Climb
Screenshots: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5








You may not believe in aliens. Or the boogey monster. Or John Wick for that matter. But, embarking on this somewhat cold and dark endeavour you probably shouldn't look out the windows when in a small corridor then. I'm not saying that there will be flying saucers circling a huge spaceship or anything. Probably best avoided though. And if you find yourself jumping on tiny UFOs just close your eyes. That way you won't notice the few times they beam you up either. Oh, and the alien that is looking up at you from under the floor probably was an enemy to the other race anyway. Don't worry, but keep running. I'm not sure about John Wick yet, but I'm starting to believe in aliens. Beam me up again please!









kz_ins_azzerun by hm^
Challenge: Average
Length: Short
Type: Climb / Bhop / Slide
Screenshots: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5








This is an Aztec themed map containing a variety of different jumps like slides and bhops. It's a short but challenging speedrun map indeed! If you turn on your Speedy Gonzales mood, it will definitely be an important help for you to actually finish kz_ins_azzerun!









kz_machupicchu by Kreedz and SadPuppy
Challenge: Average
Length: Medium
Type: Climb
Screenshots: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5








Once upon a time, Kreedz and SadPuppy started this map. Then it was put into hibernation for many years until a curious puppy thawed it and started investigating the mountain. It turned out to contain a beautiful crystal cave full with Kreedz. Or typical Kreedz jumps at least. Wag your tail and keep climbing outside and inside in a resurrected oldschool map. And check out the secret in the water. It's always in the water, as they stated in a horror movie once.









kz_monte by CiNdOR^
Challenge: Easy
Length: Short
Type: Climb
Screenshots: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5








I bet you have heard of Monte Carlo! But did you know that Monte means mountain? This is Monte, created by CiNdOR^. This Monte is a short climbing map. All you need is to conquer and master all the jumps and sweet combos along the way all the way up to the top. Finish the map to enjoy the view from this Monte!














ffy_hb_tipsy by F1uffY
Challenge: Hard / Extreme
Length: Medium / Long
Type: Climb / Bhop
Screenshots: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5








Happy birthday, tipsy! Before you are ready to start climbing, you will receive lots of hp which may be a hint that you will need lots.. If you don't have a decent plugin like KZ-Rush or such which autoboosts you, make sure to grab the HP manually. Map theme is a solid design effort which is representative of the Core Level Blocks. But alas, the clock is ticking. Are you ready to locate and hit that end switch to stop the clock?









fu_plainhop2 by FuZzy1
Challenge: Hard / Extreme
Length: Medium
Type: Bhop
Screenshots: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5








It is here! Plainhop 2 has arrived! Another colorful map design that emanates throughout the entire map, with different shapes and varieties of jumps that are entertaining to bunny hop and combo. If you somehow enjoy colors, then you are bound to fall in love with this map.









muj_time by muJik
Challenge: Hard / Extreme
Length: Medium
Type: Climb / Slide
Screenshots: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5








They claim that time flies, and it may do just that when you play this map by a legendary mapper, muJik, who created this quality map which forces you to think in the beginning. What is going on? As time passes the map gets more interesting however. Main jumping type for this map are slides, then climbs and finally some mazes at the end. Still thinking about it? Time is wasting and the clock is already ticking!





Thanks to KarLi and SadPuppy for the descriptions and everyone else who helped with this release. If you have any feedback for the map admins or mappers, express your thoughts in the comments.

Go record and have fun!

Always yours,
XJ

kz_monte nice map, gj all mappers

11/08/2020 21:31:00

and btw some nice sc's

11/08/2020 22:08:00

If in fact the map was denied due to a big sc, I tried to fix it but had a problem and lost the config file of Batch Compiler, which resulted in a map with different lighting, and I didn't like that new version. So I didn't want to re-upload the map. But the map admins decided to accept it anyway :3.

11/08/2020 23:52:00

i guess i found the big one :)

11/08/2020 21:08:00

SadPuppy the master.

12/08/2020 00:27:00

all star mappers only, gonna play them all

13/08/2020 10:31:00

I've tried muj_time yesterday on stream and I can't believe how is muJik still coming up with so many ideas. @muJik are you aspiring to be an architect in the future? Well there are probably more fields where you would excel. Part with dedication to FAME got me pretty emotional as well. Also, I've heard rumours about a very uncomfortable jumpscare in the end. Is it triggered with a certain chance?

12/08/2020 01:13:00

<3 awesome

12/08/2020 16:44:00

12/08/2020 05:40:00

Beautiful maps, beautiful descriptions. These are the small differences that keeps our beloved XJ way ahead of other community KZ sites - those little attention to details. Good job mappers, admins & friends.

12/08/2020 14:43:00

Best release so far this year for me =) GG To all, and wait for more!

12/08/2020 15:57:00

kz_monte is shredding. Is it 1.6 map? :)

13/08/2020 10:33:00

gl_fog 1 makes it a real masterpiece. That shortcut though :/

13/08/2020 15:57:00

there are many scs

12/08/2020 23:52:00

gj CindorrRRRR

13/08/2020 10:59:00

fu_plainhop2 very good as h/x bhop map

13/08/2020 15:59:00

It's just perf grind, but the map looks nice. A little confusing first few runs imo.

13/08/2020 19:40:00

i would say its more about angle setups then about perfs.. theres no long distances at all.

15/08/2020 09:32:00

Yep, the map is kind of average once you figure out the best paths to follow
