[Minigame] Christmas Quest - Development Thread

[Sliph-M]

Welcome to the official development thread of Christmas Quest and... well... merry xmas!

Me and Felipe Gormadoc have been producing this map since 12/15/2013, it's really a run against the time to release it at christmas day, we're doing our best to do it with all attention what it deserves and be a cool minigame to play with friends.

The main idea of the map, of course, is the Christmas Theme, so all the decoration and the gameplay is based on Christmas.

About the gameplay: Christmas Quest is Team Co-op map. there is 2 teams: the Elven Team and the Goblin Team, both controlled by players.
the elves must deliver the christmas gifts for Warcraft lore characters, and the goblins want to ruin the christmas stopping the gift delivery.
the winner team is the one with more points, the elven team won points by successfully deliver the christmas gifts. the goblin team have two different ways to won points: picking up the elven gifts or delaying the elven team at the first step.
about the steps: there is two steps in the game, the collect step and the delivery step. at the collect step the elven team must collect some "Happiness Shards" to make a gift and the goblins must delay the elves to get some extra points. when the gift is ready to be delivered the second step starts, the delivery step, at the delivery step the elven team must delivery te gift for the respective owner of it at the city, and the goblin team must stop them before it happen.
there is some spells and tricks to both teams.

Looks awesome and knowing, this project is right on track because Christmas is near. The terrain looks good but knowing Felipe and you, I do think you could make it better like more HQ.

Nothing much more to say and just good luck and advance Merry Christmas. Reps for the cool project!

Oh and I think you should change the fence doodad at the first screenshot, it looks too LQ if you will ask me.

There is no other HQ models that makes the fence awkward so why change it if it fit the bill?

The gameplay sounds really fun, I'll try it when its available for download.
