Hole in the Wall
More actions
Hole in the Wall is a movement-based last-man-standing game on MCC Island, which was introduced in Patch 0.1.0, with the release of the server.
Official Description
Stay alive for as long as you can and avoid a barrage of obstacles without being pushed off the platform, while large walls of slime converge on you from all directions! Over time, walls will get speedier and the platform will crumble beneath your feet so watch your step - the last one standing wins!
Gameplay
Hole in the Wall is a last-man-standing game, in which players stand on a platform and try to dodge through giant slime walls or fall into the void. The game is played in a 3-minute 30-seconds round. A player wins if they are the last one standing, or survive the entire duration of the game.
In addition, traps occur throughout the game to distract, disrupt and inconvenience the player. As the game progresses, traps are set off more often, until the last minute when they are activated every 5 seconds.
The minimum player count is 8, while the maximum player count is 12.
Difficulty Curve
As the game progresses, it becomes more and more difficult. Below is a table showcasing how the game's difficulty changes as the game continues:
| Time Remaining | Difficulty Changes |
|---|---|
| 3 Minutes 30 Seconds (Game Start) | Wall Speed: 10% Wall Difficulty: Easy Trap Frequency: 20 Seconds |
| 3 Minutes | Wall Speed: 40% |
| 2 Minutes 45 Seconds | Wall Difficulty: Medium |
| 2 Minutes 27 Seconds | Trap Frequency: 15 Seconds |
| 2 Minutes | Wall Difficulty: Hard
Wall Speed: 70% |
| 1 Minute 57 Seconds | Trap Frequency: 10 Seconds |
| 1 Minute 15 Seconds | Wall Difficulty: Very Hard |
| 1 Minute 7 Seconds | Trap Frequency: 5 Seconds |
| 1 Minute | Wall Speed: 100% |
Aside from these changes, the platform floor of the map also deteriorates as the game progresses. Every time approximately 1/3rd of the lobby you are in falls out of the arena, the floor shrinks.
Walls
Aside from the average wall in the game which glides right through the arena, there are also special types of walls. They are listed and described below:
Returning Walls
Returning Walls can appear at any time during playtime. These walls move through the arena like normal, but when they reach the side opposite the one they started at, they 'return', as indicated by their name. An important thing to look for is the fact that when they are returning, the pistons are still on the same side of the wall as they were when they spawned. This means, if you notice the wall returning too late, you may clip one of the pistons instead of being able to pull off a save.
Sike Walls
Sike Walls can appear any time during playtime after 1 minute. These walls are meant to move towards the arena just until it actually reaches the platform, and then it stops. After a short period, the Sike Wall will disappear. Sike Walls are always paired with at least 1 real wall, and there can be up to 3 Sike Walls on any given 'wave' of walls.
Traps
Traps are triggered at a rate according to the current Trap Frequency. They can be anything from mob spawns, special items granted, and arena changes. The following is a list of all traps currently in Hole in the Wall:
- Mob Spawning Traps
- Chicken Storm - Chickens are spawned flying all around the arena.
- Creepy Crawlies! - Spiders are spawned in the arena.
- Feeling Hot - Blazes are spawned decently far away from the arena and shoot at the players.
