gm_grandfathergalley [ Surreal / Liminal / Abstract Sandbox map ]

(Cover image manipulated via Skybox Editor Tool)

A moist, wet, humid, sandy place that is not outright hostile to life, but also isn't very conducive to its survival either..

Anomalies run rampant among the desert and the clammy warm air carries the scent of oncoming rain..

The warm sand full of ancient debris under the lifted city with its shattered causeway..

Smells of motor oil and ozone in the highway'd town with its urban-crawl..

Some would call this place a surreal purgatory that breeds combat, battle, and skirmish over its shattered remains..
What conflict and what great trials shall take place here in GrandFather Galley..?


my first map I made over the course of a few weeks and multiple month long breaks and countless compile times, the filesize is also ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ huge and I don't know why, probably just because the textures I put in are big

!!YOU NEED COUNTERSTRIKE SOURCE, EPISODE ONE AND EPISODE TWO, AND LOST COAST FOR THE SAND TEXTURES, SORRY!!
