     This map is a fun Backyard/Playground type map for HL2, expecially for multiplayer, but it hasn't been tested in MP yet. :)

     There is a seasaw, a spinny thing (Something you'd see at a playground or something.), a tireswing (Held up by a flying device to ensure maximum swingage.), a sandbox, a pinata, a doghouse complete with a pet named "Spot", and finally, a sandbox.

     There are some easter eggs but I won't say where they are, and I recommend you use godmode BUT NOT NOCLIP. What fun is that? :)

Some fun things to do:
----------------------

     The gas canisters behind the pool are good for pushing things around or spinning the spinning thing around. But there are also 3 cannisters by the sea saw that have 2 times as much thrust and last longer. Try attatching a 'Super' cannister to the side of the tireswing and jump in, make sure you have godmode on for this one. Then set off the top of the gas cannister with the physgun, to make sure you don't blow up the tank if you miss. Hold onto your seat, it's going to be one hell of a tireswing ride. ;)

     The pinata is full of treats and is great for parties.

     That's about all, I'm sure there are endless things you can think of to do, expecially with a friend playing, try having one sitting in the tirewing and you can push them back and forth with the GravGun. Aside from that the level is very interactive and shooting things or pressing on objects and looking for clues will ensure some interesting finds. :D

Enjoy!
