Player Feeling
The map intends to make players think more creatively with the introduction of a elevator. Since not many maps have this mechanic, players should think how to use this mechanic for their own benefit.

A deeper look into my design thought process can be found in my videos called "I made my own VALORANT map (Factory)", "Making changes to my VALORANT map (Factory)", and "Factory (Blockout) Version 3"
Final Thoughts
Overall, the map turned out fairly well even after going through multiple revisions throughout the years. I'm very satisfied with the elevator concept, seeing it function properly feels rewarding.
There's a list of things that I'd like add in the future. Minor things like making the barriers blue, allow players to shoot the button to activate the elevator, and move the A plant zone to the back of site. With more major changes, such as adding a window that sees into A main on the attacker side similar to Breeze.
