Bread Space is a community-made Payload map released during the Smissmas 2021 update.
Set in a decaying moonbase, the map features a giant Bread Monster that lurks in an excavated pit. Littered about the site are attempts to fight off the strange, murderous forms of tentacled bread, including wrecked structures and barricaded rooms. Attempts at studying the bread-based life forms and mad wall scrawlings indicate the Bread Forms have successfully brainwashed the mercenaries, and a plan to place "shells" in cryogenic stasis to fly back to Earth.
BLU is tasked with pushing a drill cart into the maw of the Bread Monster, while RED, having been turned into mind-controlled "breadheads", work to defend it.
This map also features its own announcer, the Astronaut.
Bread Space was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
Contents
Bread Forms
Several Bread Forms (Latin: Panismorph) can be found across the map.
- Shells
- Cross-top shells are found deeper in the level. They do not open for the players, but are suspected of infecting RED Team through "spores".
- Breadcrabs
- Possessing only upper teeth, tentacled Breadcrabs are purported to come from Shells and are rarely found alive. They cannot be accessed by players, but one can be found immediately under first BLU Spawn. Graffiti suggests that they attach to the heads of victims, taking over their minds.
- Burstchester
- Possibly contracted from spore particles emitted by opened Shells, Burstchester is a life form that rapidly develops within the chest of a victim before bursting out, taking the form of a small, juvenile Bread Monster that crawls off to eat and grow.
- Fatties
- Littered in the facility are corpses of Bread Monsters that appear to have succumbed to immense green tumors. These are tentatively named 'Fatties' in a recovered Report of Postmortem Examination, Case No. SW1969-04275. Their swollen tumors rupture and spray strong acid when disturbed.
- Big Mama (Specimen 79)
- Big Mama is a humongous Bread Monster that has crawled into Tyco Excavation's borehole. Its tentacles seem to reach throughout the moonbase.
- When surrounded by its protective "Bread Heads" (mind-controlled RED mercenaries), Big Mama lies dormant at the bottom, seemingly sleeping, but at great enough depth to cause a lethal fall.
- When the cart reaches the Gate, Big Mama is roused, rising up from the borehole and roaring. Big Mama retracts slightly afterwards, peeping just above the borehole, and snaps at and gibs any player that touches it.
Locations
Checkpoint A: Outer Perimeter
- Front Yard: The area where the Cart starts. It is a desolate piece of terrain without much of anything around it.
- Observation Posts: In one of Front Yard's corners, a group of antennas and other equipment can be seen.
- Upper pathway: Branching off from the Front Yard to left, a small route which leads onto a vantage point besides the first checkpoint is present.
Checkpoint A
Checkpoint B: Transition Area
- Tycho Corp: On the bottom left side of the map is a tall, white building called "Tycho Corp".
- Slope: After passing checkpoint A, the cart makes a turn to the right and starts descending down a slope.
- Cave Flank: On the Slope's right side is tight flank route to the Overrun Room.
- Overrun Room: The structure which houses the second checkpoint. It displays signs of struggle and violence, as marked by numerous blood trails and disrupted furniture.
- Barricade: A dead end room off of second RED spawn.
Checkpoint B
Checkpoint C: The Caves
Checkpoint C
Checkpoint D: The Pit
- Excavation Drill Site
- Coring Platform
- Air Ducts
