The year is 1999. You just got back from watching Toy Story 2. "I'm gonna be Buzz Lightyear for Halloween, next year!" you thought to your little bitch ass kid self. You pestered your parents into taking you to Toys "R" Us, hoping to get some sweet action figure. Little did you know that the movie didn't end at the theater; there was a whole ass video game released just a short time after! You got it for your PlayStation 1 video gaming console, and holy shit... this was one of the few GOOD licensed games out there! In fact, it wasn't just good; this game was a bop-and-a-half.
This was a 3D platformer that carried you through many of the movie's important setpieces. You had Andy's house, the neighborhood backyard, a random construction site, Pedophile Al's penthouse. You even had a not-properly-scaled airport! You could even shoot that dumb bitch Jessie.

The gameplay was pretty tight and right out of what you would imagine the lives of toys would be like, even though this genre was still in its infancy. I can't think of any other game that captured the same vibe that emanated from this gem. The only thing that comes comparatively close has been Rats-style maps from various FPS games, primarily those made for Valve games.
However, in 2019, some crazy motherfucking German dude spent way too much time going from THIS:

Yeah, you are seeing that first image correctly: he even added the gamer goo that was originally present in the PS1 game.
It is difficult to showcase how much work went into the map without playing it. The creator added SO much extra shit that was not present in neither the PS1 game nor the movie. These additions, however, make this map for Garry's Mod feel like Toy Story 2 did to Toy Story 1: a massive improvement. The gameplay flow, the high quality textures, the optimization, the secrets... everything melds together to form one of the BEST custom maps in a Source game out there. If this was the first Rats map, that genre of maps would be called "Toy Barns". This man included a STORE ANNOUNCER, in spite his questionable voice work. This map fucks.
Special features:

The only issue with adding this map is that it will make every other Rats map suck dick by comparison. That's supposed to reserved for the gamer girls (and KaptainLes)! As a community, we can move past that.
