General Information:

MAD is a fast action-paced custom map for SC2 for up to 8 players! Go toe-to-toe in a variety of different game modes in this top-down Quake/UT style shooter! Fight alongside your friends, or launch a rocket in their face!

Using simple and intuitive controls you fight in the different arenas and do your best to 'frag' other players, and should you die you respawn shortly after. Powerups are scattered across the arena for you to collect, such as Speed Rune, Super Shield and Quad Damage.

• R: Reload

Upcoming:

I hope you'll join for a couple of games, and be sure to bring your friends for a round of FFA or Team Deathmatch! :) Feel free to leave feedback and suggestions!

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a bug where the game didn't end when all players on a team had left.
• Fixed a bug where players would take direct damage from their own rockets if standing too close to the explosion.
• Fixed a bug where marines dropped a non-existent combat shield upon death. It was never there... nope, it was just your imagination.
