I need help making a map that is similar to TPOT 9, including how the game should work.
Hey, welcome to the forums @Object_Show_Fan !
What is TPOT 9, I’ve never heard of it?
Oh yeah, and make sure to at least skim this intro to the forums that I wrote! It will help a lot as you learn more about this place.
Forum Basics
Rules and Official Links
Read the following links thoroughly:
Trust Levels
TL1: (“Basic”)This is most likely your current trust level! You have a brand new account, limited likes, and limited replies.
TL2: (“Members”)This is the trust level I’m currently in. This trust level makes up the majority of the forums. Its the average trust level, with unlimited replies, more available likes, and has the ability to post images.
TL3: Also known as the “Regulars”, they can make their own topics wikis, which allows for unlimited editing. They have unlimited replies, more likes available then the TL2’s, and have stronger flags.
TL4: (“Moderator”) Has the most power compared to the rest of the trust levels, and are able to wiki-fy others posts, can close or open posts, obviously unlimited replies, has the most available likes out of the trust levels, and more.
Categories
Ask for help from other forumers on things such as devices, code problems, and more. Make sure to explain your problem clearly, as it helps us figure out what is wrong.
Make your own helpful guides here! Mainly post guides on cool systems and device use. Make sure to always search to see if someone had made the guide before you.
Ask for thumbnails for games, or post guides regarding text, barrier, and custom shape art that will help players make their game look nice. Again, search to see if someone has made the same guide before you.
This category is pretty much all things about devices, but (from what I’ve seen) is commonly used for advanced research topics.
Updates is the category where you will find new posts from the Gimkit Team announcing new updates, including what they will contain.
These are community hosted events that are used to focus and reward the cool things we have done using Gimkit!
Important Notes
-
ALWAYS search before you post. You might make a useless help topic that already has the answer. This will cause clutter, which we don’t want.
-
NEVER use AI and call it your own work. Use that beautiful brain of yours and come up with something original, especially for “I need lore pls” topics.
-
BE RESPECTFUL. We are all human, and we all make mistakes. Instead of calling someone out rudely for something they’ve done wrong, correct them politely and encouragingly.
-
STAY ON-TOPIC. This is the #1 thing new users don’t do. Always try to make your replies relate to the current topic. And if you notice yourself and someone else starting to go off-topic, politely say that “Oh, we should probably get back on-topic” or “Getting a little off-topic here, let’s stop.”
-
USE THE LIKE BUTTON. Some people post useless replies like “Good job” or “Looks good.” Yes, these are encouraging and kind, but on most occasions, are not needed or add clutter. Remember to always try to use the like buttons, it’s there for you!
-
NO ACTIVE CODES. Please don’t post any active game codes, as it’s not allowed here on the forums. Instead post them on the Gimkit Wix: Gimkit Wix/Code Sharing
Don’t worry if you mess up or make a mistake here! Everyone has accidentally broken a rule, so it’s OKAY!! Just learn from it, and move on.

So, there you have it, almost all the basics I could cover. Again, I really hope you enjoy your time on these forums, and that you are able to become a valued member of Gimkit Creative! Take these tips and use them for the better of this site.

Ok, after some research, I’ve realized that episode 9 is based on a zombie apocalypse?

yes it was based on that
Is your map top down or platformer?
Have zombie looking sentries around the map for you to shoot at.
I meant to say top down
