Aliens vs Predator 2 singleplayer custom map titled "Maze2".

Map review:
"Maze2" is the second of the few maze maps included with HHO's Frosty Aliens Predators - Special Edition (aka FAP_SE). Once again the player spawns as a marine and must navigate the maze to find the exit. While the "Maze1" map had a hedge maze style to it, "Maze2" comes off as a maze/obstacle course hybrid. At the start and end of the map, the player will navigate very narrow tunnels that force the player to conquer various obstacles that immediately kill the player upon failure. Thus, it is recommended to quick save often. The middle section of the map has an alien hive maze, a glass floor maze and a few rooms require the player to teleport via warps.
The majority of the maze has very little npcs to deal with. The majority of them are facehuggers that come from eggs that can be avoided if they are destroyed. The remaining npcs are predators (a few of which sneak attack the player), a few drone aliens and a few corporates. One of these corporates is invincible as he can regenerate health and chase the player after he gets back up from falling. The biggest difficulty hurdle is easily clearing some obstacles. While I played this map previously, I had forgotten how to clear some of the jumps over acid pools. Therefore, I took many attempts to get it right.
It should be noted that a few sections of Maze2 (the spike wall trap, the hive and predator cage with Jones) are reused in the POD expansion levels of the map FAP_SE. Overall Maze2 is a lot of fun. There aren't many maps that present obstacles to the player and force the player to think of their approach. More maps like this are needed.
