Not a great map but excellent sound effects.

From the movie THX1138 - a very stark, sterile, sedated prediction of the future.

www.imdb.com/title/tt0066434


THX1138 was George Lucas's (Star Wars) first film. The original was made while he was still in college. He later went on to re-shoot the picture for Zeotrope films where it became a sci-fi classic.

If you get a chance, see the digitally re-mastered DVD version.

It's very Binary!




Points of interest.

In making the movie, George said he wanted to create a world in which future citizens will live in a kind of giant ant farm located deep under ground.

This map reminds me more of plumbing.

Lots of pipes and tubes.

I really didn't spend a lot of time on this map because I didn't think players would want to run around in a buch of giant white hall ways. The only reason I finished it is because I really like the movie and had all these sounds and textures laying around, so I figured I was obligated to at least try.

The game flow sucks, and the giant tube is pretty much worthless except for its "awe" value.

The prison without walls is taken right from the movie. An endless white void. To escape the prison find the tiny white box and step directly behind it. Anything else and you will just be wandering in circles.

Blessings of the state, blessings of the masses,
