Maybe a map where there are 4 seperate islands, perhaps each with its own unique feature, and players would fight on these islands or between them?

EDIT: Another map idea i like to call the Thunderdome, an island surrounded by a large dome, curved in such a way so that when players hit the dome at a fast enough speed on the right angle, they'll shoot straight down into the void

Your second idea is unfortunately impossible... Hammer really doesn't like complex structures. drpz_hellhole was supposed to be encased in a dome but it was such a pain in the ass i gave up. Even the name hellhole came from the frustration i felt trying to make it.

On the other hand, your first idea is pretty neat. I'll start working on it.
Thanks for the suggestion.

How about a block, like, just a block, that is all.

-No effects

-No intresting features

-Maybe even dev textures

It would quite literally just be a plain block

The map would have to be tournament legal

final destination from melee for crying out loud

I wanted to make a map from a Smash game, but I never played any of them so I didn't know which one would be iconic enough to make. It will probably take a little longer to make than your usual map since I’ll have to use a lot of custom textures.
Thanks!

I actually already made it but for some reason it doesn't want to get uploaded to the workshop.
I'll respond again with a link to it when it happens.

How about, in space, on an flying comet, and gradually over time the comet shrinks. Not sure how someone would pull that off tho, I've never found any mechanism of shrinking a brush in Hammer.

You could cheese it by having several small brushes that overlap and move into one position. Though it would have a glitchy looking texture.

You could do it by having like 100000 func_brushes each smaller then the other by 1 hm and make them dissapear one after another. But that's too much work for me, sorry! :/

Finally got uploaded, here it is: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1600947128&searchtext=drpz

How about: A map made of doors. And then they open, becoming a hazard where players fall through them.

Players would probably get stuck in them and the only way to get rid of it would be to allow doors to kill them... Thanks for the idea anyways, I might try to do it if I find some solution to players getting stuck.

Maybe a map that's staged on a pirate ship or large boat? water all around that could be fatal if fallen into

Tried doing a map filled with water before, but I couldn't make it so water in the map and water in the skybox had a smooth transition. I'll try doing it sometime in the future when i gain more expierience with hammer. Thanks for the suggestion!

maybe like a little icecap map, the ice would be slippery and players can fall in the water

is there any special entities needed to map for this or what? if there are you should probably make a thread with mapping documentation
