Dm-Pah has a warehouse look to it, and is designed for 2-6 players. The aesthetics aren't too bad, but the playability it lacking.

One thing I like about this map is the z-axis opportunities. They are everywhere, which helps make for good gameplay. But the author, David M¸nnich, went a little overboard and used way too many polys in some instances, which makes the map unplayable for some. This, in turn, takes a lot of the fun out of it. The author mentions that he tried to stay within a 210 poly count budget, but I saw it rise over 260 in screenshot two. The place looks pretty good, but everything looks basically the same. Not bad for small maps, but this one had some room to breathe, and some imagination would have been welcome in the abundant spaces.

There are some bevels and curves which look nice, some trim that was overly done in a spot or so, and a block pillar in screenshot one that defies gravity as it rests on an overhang with no support of its own. There's lots of wood, concrete block, and steel, with some chains that were a nice touch. Some areas had dark corners, which looked a little peculiar, and a couple of light fixtures which needed to be brightened up to account for all the light they were throwing on the floor.

The bots did pretty well, but some places they seem to avoid, as they do in a lot of maps I've checked out. They seem to pool in certain areas, while avoiding others. The item placement was okay, except for maybe the shieldbelt, which is no challenge to acquire.

The lighting was colorful, and appropriate. A few places probably could have done without a few light cutouts for the sake of a few less polys and no one would have been the wiser. The map includes a few sounds, including lift sounds, and music.
