Photon Cycles on YogsCast by JademsSreg
A few months ago, we featured JademusSreg's Photon Cycles map project and it seems as if it's caught the attention of the popular gaming podcast, YogsCast. It's very interesting to listen to what these guys have to say about the project, because they are clearly not SC2 players. That isn't bashing at all, it's just always interesting to get some feedback from outsiders of our normal community, :).

OTHER SPINAL TAP QUOTE
well it keeps folding and breaking and it's a complete catastrophe (whilst folding the ham AND bread on one of those tiny snack sandwiches)
FAVORITE SPINAL TAP QUOTE
well don't make a big thing out of it.
(other guy) making a big thing out of it would have been a good idea

Posted Sep 13, 2011This is great work. The gameplay seems almost like you're playing a game built from the ground up, and it looks really fun to play. It must have taken a fair amount of time and effort to complete this, so congrats to the mapmaker(s?)!
I hope maps like these keep getting built and used by the community. The editor provides such broad capabilities, it's insane how much creative work can be done with it. To be honest, though, I didn't realize the sc2 gameplay could be altered that drastically. This is exciting stuff.

Posted Sep 13, 2011That's some pretty significant exposure; it boosted the time played on the map by over 600 hours over a few days.
I doubt my map is worth a pound, but it's flattering they would suggest it.

Posted Sep 13, 2011A blizzard marketplace... I know it's comming and really, I think it's just a freaking bad idea to moneytise every ludical aspect of gaming. They spoke of it as behind potentially a good cash making cow... They are unfortunately right, a cash making cow for blizzard. I'll turn this game off for good when they start making mapmaker sign agreement about mod profit.
We mod for fun and for free (I hope we all do). If you don't do that, it's either for a portfolio, if it's not, just go study professional game making and leave the "free" alone.
Still good to have some outside add, thanks to them.
