Changes: Gauntlet (level)

Revision as of 04:58, 22 September 2014

Gauntlet is a Single Player and Multiplayer level in Dark Hour. Gauntlet is a multi-level map with plenty of Weapons and Enemies. This was Jason Ng's first level. In retrospect Jason Ng was rather unsure on the origin of the level name, leaving it a mystery.

In Deathmatch, it is intended for 4 players or less. More are supported, but it will be rather crowded. There are no differences between the Single Player and Deathmatch versions of this map.
