Sorry, we couldn't find any images attached to this page.

Splatter-of-matter (or SOM for short) is a Sven-Coop map experience by robootto. It features a four-way symmetrical layout (or, as my buddy pointed out, "rotational symmetry") and a spiral ascent with branching hallways. One hallway leads to a shotgun shell room. The rest lead to dead ends, though some of those dead ends also have ammo. There's a ring of every weapon at the bottom where the players spawn. If you jump from the highest point down to the middle, you will gib and splatter. I have to imagine that is the intent of the map.

Overall, the architecture is a bit interesting to look at, but unless you flip on PVP and play this like it's deathmatch, there's no point to this map. It seems like the type of thing somebody makes in Hammer on a lark because it's fun to make shapes, much less like something that's meant to be played.

Pros:

  • Sorta interesting architecture
  • A bunch of weapons if you wanna fuck around

Cons:

  • There is nothing to the map
  • There is no goal
  • There is no end
Score: 3 / 10
