From up here, I feel like I can see it all...
What a journey this was. I finalized the flag order for GMHS on 22 October 2021 and finished the map itself on 16 January 2023, after spending over 500 hours working on it in the editor and several hundred more planning and testing it. Organizing, assembling, and polishing this behemoth of a final challenge was deeply satisfying, draining, joyous, miserable, and everything in between. I came close to burning myself out several times during this map's development, but seeing the finished product and ending sequence made all the late nights and six-hour sessions worth it. I hope you can find that same satisfaction at the end of your journey with SJ.
Thank you to everyone who made this map possible, it wouldn't exist without you. Special shoutouts to quadratic97 for going above and beyond with the flag 1 cassette remix and ending music, Ecl1psed for recording and editing this showcase video, and nerferd_ for generously providing the thumbnail.
