Short and enjoyable map! Good performance, and very nice ending. I really enjoyed it.

Really nice map! Visual of the lab looks very clean and nice, map design is good, and events and scripts are cool!

A really nice well rounded mod. I think the Lambda Reactor is something that is overlooked in Black Mesa, since its the machine tat actually brought to Xen. Great job!

This was a really good ride, especially the ending!

@Dr. Klam: Maybe you should get your physics right. The 100MeV in context of a neutron star are about the fermi energy of a single electron in the core of the star. 3 TeV are roughly equal to the kinetic energy of a flying mosquito. In terms of particle accelerators, 3 TeV are something - the LHC operates at 3.5 TeV and peaked 13 TeV while colliding protons in 2015. It's all on Wikipedia, look it up!
Remember: Electronvolts are not Volts!

I love this map! Very cool. A must play.

Dumb steam won't let me do commets over 1000 characters, and I said so much good things about this map, but honestly, no spoilers is better. You HAVE to play it for yourself!

Nice short & sweet map, I liked the use of Shadows of Death for the escape sequence

That was a pretty cool, and well designed, fun map.
Some details took me out of the action a little, but they are nitpicks

I looked in the control room, and the reator was running at about 3000 Giga electron volts. Shit. Normally, you would expect a few MeV (Million electron volts)
I looked it up, and in a Neutron star, the energy can exceed 100 MeV. So 3 TeV is a bit much.
There was no shielding between the control room, and the reactor, and no reactor containment structure, so I think everyone would have been vaporised in a second.
..But then again it's probably a scifi reactor :)

Great map none the less

@Shephard - thanks, glad you enjoy them. I started the basics of a new map a month or two ago but it's on hold for a while. I've been mapping in Source for a few years and find it harder to maintain motivation. Meltdown took a couple of years on and off because of this. I'd expect to finish it eventually, so a 2022/23 release sounds reasonable.
Shephard 24 May, 2022 @ 10:15am 
Damn, I really like your maps. Is there a chance for creating a new one in 2022/2023? Do you have any plans / ideas for a new one? I see nice improvements in each of your maps. :)
Kaleidø.vtf 21 May, 2022 @ 10:59pm 
dude no offense, this map is great, but you NEED more auto saves. i've walked throu the map like 8 times

Fantastic map. Very short, but does what it sets out to do very well.

ok
JamaicanDave  [author] 20 Jan, 2022 @ 3:33am 
@ mr lime head - afraid I don't know when I'll next make a map or what style it'll be.
Scene Queen 17 Jan, 2022 @ 3:43am 
is it possable for you to make more meltdown maps like this?
AGENT-427 15 Jan, 2022 @ 10:00am 
Nice level design, Escaping the meltdown at the end was fun
tu7650x 14 Jan, 2022 @ 8:55pm 
Beautiful map design. World geometry, choice of textures, props and lighting. Attention to detail and fun gameplay. This is top-notch in my book. Well done Jamaican Dave!!
Exo-Ray 6 Jan, 2022 @ 10:29pm 
Absolutely brilliant! These are the kind of workshop maps that need serious attention, great job.
St Jimmy 23 Dec, 2021 @ 9:40am 
That was cool as hell! Wasn't expecting a twist like that.
Saint Foosem 22 Nov, 2021 @ 10:35pm 
We need more singplayer 'campaigns' like this on the Workshop. This was short but enjoyable.
ouch 5 Nov, 2021 @ 11:32pm 
WAY too short but nicely done!
vodkins 4 Nov, 2021 @ 8:36am 
Yes, exactly the most "fun" ending is the explosion of something from behind that I can't hide from and the white screen of death. I can't choose another quick save here. And too lazy to start over. No/
Archaos 4 Nov, 2021 @ 6:07am 
Short an on point, very sastisfying to play.
Actual_Artifacts 3 Nov, 2021 @ 3:34pm 
Really enjoyed this

Excellent map!. Just played it. Please keep it up! We need more workshop maps like this.
Pulsarwave 31 Oct, 2021 @ 9:17am 
Great map man! The ending was intense!
ICEBIRD112 30 Oct, 2021 @ 7:01pm 
This map is pretty great, not very long but definitely worth playing.
NiKOLE 30 Oct, 2021 @ 9:00am 
So I finally finished the map and holy shit it was amazing, maybe even one of your best maps! I wont spoil the ending for people who haven't played yet but I'll just say it would have been even better with Metroid music.
White and Birdy™ 29 Oct, 2021 @ 8:23pm 
Ohooo man, that was cool. Nice work! :steamthumbsup:

AYO RETURN OF THE KING

Me: I wonder when a good map will come out.
This mod: Im already here.
