Hey everyone! This week’s Map of the Week goes for the third time in a row to SockPuppet with his map “A Wise Use of Time”. In contrast with his last map, SockPuppet’s taken a simple mechanic, the timer, and used it to make a short but challenging map, where you have just 53 seconds to clear a building of enemies. Fortunately, there’s an 8 second headstart before the timer starts counting down, allowing the player to prepare before jumping in (literally).
There’s a large variety of enemies on this map – the building’s occupants feature all four factions, all out for your head. The short time you’ve got to complete the map means you need to strategize quickly and carefully – the timer’s constant march towards failure really builds up the pressure, and yet it’s long enough that the level isn’t impossible at all. Don’t let your guard down after you’ve beaten the clock, though. There’s backup. Lots of backup.
This map also features 3 easter eggs, including a spy who’ll be served right, a “cheaty” way through the map and a totem that'll stop the timer if you burn it. That's what they're supposed to do, right? Good luck finding them all!

Play it now! I’m also happy to announce that we now have a semi-official Discord server to gather deadbolt players in one place, moderated by yours truly & his buds. We’re planning on enhancing the server and will probably even allow memes at some point, so hop in! https://discord.gg/3Z9YPnn
